Understanding Cell Theory & Membrane Receptors: Life's Units - Prof. Roman E. Boldyreff, Study notes of Biology

An overview of cell theory, discussing cells as the basic unit of life and the source of all organisms. It also introduces the concept of a generalized cell, covering the nucleus, organelles, cytoplasm, and plasma membrane. Furthermore, it explores cell membrane receptors and their roles in signaling processes. Students will gain a solid foundation in cell biology.

A. Cell Theory B. Generalized Cell C. Cell Membrane Receptor Proteins

VI. Cells

  1. Cell- a. structural & functional unit of life b. smallest unit of life with all the properties of life
  2. All organisms are either a cell or composed of cells
  3. All cells come from other living cells

A. Cell Theory

  1. Proteins embedded in the plasma membrane
  2. Contact signaling- identification of other cells
  3. Electric signaling- channel or gate proteins, open or close based on the charge of the membrane
  4. Chemical signaling- ligand binds to protein causing a chemical change, secondary messengers

C. Cell Membrane Receptors
