Question
Chapter 25.7, Problem 1MQ
Summary Introduction
Cytolytic exotoxins (cytotoxins) are the group of toxins that damage the cell membrane leading to lyses and death of the cell. Cytotoxins are also referred as hemolysins because their activity can be detected in red blood cells (erythrocytes). Superantigens are produced by different strains of gram positive bacteria. Superantigen exotoxins poisoning can even lead to toxic shock syndrome.

Identify the areas of the lipid bilayer that are hydrophobic and hydrophilic. Draw a membrane with two transporters: a proton pump transporter that uses ATP to generate a proton gradient, and a second transporter that moves glucose by secondary active transport (cartoon-like is ok). It will be important to show protons moving in the correct direction, and that the transporter that is powered by secondary active transport is logically related to the proton pump.arrow_forward
