March 2008 Sodium-Potassium pump, an example of Primary active transport Sodium-Potassium pump, an example of Primary active transport Active transport/ Active Uptake Is the process of movement of a fluid from an area of lesser concentration Hypotonic, to an area of greater concentration Hypertonic. This process requires energy and enzymes; a specific molecule called carrier molecule binds with each ion to be transported into or out of the cell against the concentration gradient normally from low to high but in this case since it is going against the gradient it is going from high to low. The cell uses active transport in three situations: when a particle is going from low to high concentration, when particles need help entering the membrane because they are selectively impermeable, and when very large particles enter and exit the cell. Active transport is the mediated process of moving molecules and other substances across membranes. Use this tutorial to learn about active transport, including such key terms as adenosine triphosphate ATP, carrier mediated transport, and concentration gradients. When particles are being moved from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentrationie. against the concentration gradient then specific carrier proteins in the membrane are required to move these particles. The carrier proteins bind to specific molecules eg. glucose and transport them into the cell where they are released. Energy is required for this process so this is known as Active Transport. Examples: sodium is transported out of the cell and potassium into the cell by the sodium/potassium pump, a form of active transport. Active transport is a process which takes place in the internal lining of the small intestine. Plants need to absorb mineral salts from the soil, but these salts are in very dilute solution. Active transport enables these cells to take up salts from this dilute solution against the concentration gradient. Active transport/ Active Uptake can be: Primary: Uses the chemical energy from ATP or other sources. or Secondary: Uses the electrochemical gradient to power transport. Classes of primary transporters pumps === ABC pumps === ABC class pumps transport small molecules across membranes. They are also called the ABC superfamily. They consist of two transmembrane domains, and two ATP binding domains. ABC pumps are involved in the transport of small molecules, phospholipids and lipophilic drugs in mammalian cells. In bacteria they transport amino acids, sugars and peptides.1 Retrieved from http://en..org/wiki/Active_transport Hidden categories: Pages needing expert attention | Uncategorized pages needing expert attention | Cleanup from March 2008 | All pages needing cleanup Views Article Discussion this page History Personal tools Log in / create account Navigation Main page Contents Featured content Current events Random article Search Go Search Interaction Community portal Recent changes Contact Donate to Help Toolbox What links here Related changes Upload file Special pages Printable version Permanent link Cite this page Languages Italiano Nederlands 日本語 Polski РуÑ?Ñ?кий Suomi This page was last modified on 16 August 2008, at 03:35
