Which of the following is true about cystic fibrosis (CF) and the CFTR transporter protein? O CFTR is a member of the ABC superfamily of membrane pumps which pumps chloride ions into the cells None of the other are true O CFTR mutations result in a mutated protein, which pumps too many chloride ions out of the cell O CFTR mutations result in a mutated protein, which blocks sodium ion movement from inside the cell to outside the cell The normal CFTR channel protein is a chloride uniporter, but CF patients have a mutation that makes it require ATP

The sodium-calcium-exchanger (NCX) protein is an antiport protein that is located in the membranes of cardiac muscle cells in humans as well as other cells. Antiport proteins transport two different solutes in opposite directions. The sodium-calcium-exchanger protein functions by secondary active transport and requires the sodium-potassium pump in order to function. The sodium-potassium pump functions by primary active transport and transports sodium ions from the intracellular fluid to the extracellular fluid. • Describe how the sodium-potassium pump provides energy for the function of the sodium-calcium-exchanger. Considering that the NCX protein is an antiport protein, describe the concentration gradient of calcium on both sides of the cell membrane. Describe the direction that the calcium ions are transported.
SNAT2 (a membrane protein) determines the cell’s content of most amino acids. It acts as a symport (or co-transporter) of Na+ and amino acids. On the outside of the cell, the Na+ concentration is higher than the inside. The amino acid concentration on the inside of the cell is higher than the outside. When both Na+ and an amino acid bind to the SNAT2 membrane channel on the outside of the cell, there is a conformational change allowing the energy from electrochemical gradient of Na+ for the transport of the amino acid into the cell. a. Draw this scenario and label your representations of Na+, amino acids, SNAT2, and the membrane. b. What kind of transport is this, simple diffusion, facilitated, diffusion, active transport, 1o active transport, or 2o active transport? Explain your choice. Thanks

Select the correct statments regarding transport of molecules across the cell membrane. Non-mediated transport is susceptible to saturation of transporter/channel proteins. Channels and transporters need not use energy to transport solute down the concentration gradient. The Na+/K+ antiport takes advantage of electrochemical gradients to exchange Na+ and K+ ions across the cell membrane. Active transport via electrochemical gradients relies on the passive transport of one solute to transport a second solute against the concentration gradient. Describe the three main sources of membrane fluidity
Active transport must function continuously because_______. a. plasma membranes wear out b. cells must be in constant motion c. facilitated transport opposes active transport d. diffusion is constantly moving the solutes in the other direction
