Alright InjNerds, in this video today we are going to be talking about the structure and function of the cell.
2
Also, if you guys haven't already, go watch our video where we talk about how I study and prepare for videos.
3
Within that, I kind of gave you guys a sneak peek of how I pretty much went through, studied this topic, developed notes,
4
diagrams, and then drew it all out on the board.
5
Now we're going to go through it.
6
Before we get into this video though please continue to support us by hitting

8
Alright Ninja Nerds let's get into it.
9
Alright Ninja Nerds
10
so we're gonna take a tour through the cell talking about what all the structures of the cell are
11
and then what they do.
12
So the first thing we got to talk about is the brain of the cell.
13
The pretty much the center of the cell where everything
14
that a cell is kind of really begins and all centers around and that is the nucleus.
15
This is the big mama the nucleus.
16
Now what we have to talk about with the nucleus is a couple different components of the nucleus.
17
What are the different components of the nucleus?
18
Well the first part of the nucleus is as you can see you see this kind of like blue membrane
19
it's double layered here so you have an outer layer
20
and then you have a inner layer on this side right so this is our inner layer layer.
21
These two components make up what's called the nuclear envelope.
22
So you have an outer layer and then you have an inner layer.
23
I know that sounds pretty obvious, but there's different functions for the outer and the inner layers.
24
So the outer layer, let's actually first say the nuclear envelope, you have two layers, the outer layer and the inner layer.
25
What is the purpose of these layers?
26
So the first thing that you need to remember is that the outer layer is where you have lots of ribosomes.
27
So ribosomes are actually going to be kind of found outside on that outer layer.
28
The reason why is in the actual nucleus, you take DNA and convert it into a structure called mRNA.
29
And mRNA has to move out via the nuclear pores and bind onto ribosomes on these outer membranes, which then get moved to the rough ER.
30
We'll talk about that a little bit later.
31
But that's the big thing I want you to remember about the outer membrane, The inner membrane has a very,
32
very important protein structure that binds to the DNA and histone proteins and controls a lot of cell division.
33
It's this green protein here.
34
That green protein that lines the inner membrane is called lamins.
35
And lamins are very, very important structures that control the structure of the nuclear envelope.
36
They're also important for cell division and interacting a lot with the chromatin.
37
There's actually a disorder.
38
Whenever there's a mutation in this lamins, it causes progerias.
39
So it's important that we kind of know these two components of the nuclear envelope.
40
The next thing is in the nuclear envelope, you see these red proteins that are dispersed throughout it?
41
Those red proteins that are dispersed throughout it, these are called nuclear pores.
42
So what are these called?
43
Nuclear pores.
44
And the whole purpose is it's honestly pretty straightforward, right?
45
If we want to move things in, ions or proteins or nucleotides or different things in and out of the nucleus,
46
that's the function of the nuclear pores.
47
And there is things, we'll talk about this a little bit later in a more specific video where we go more in detail on the nucleus,
48
but there's special types of transporters that are associated with those nuclear pores.
49
We'll talk about those in other videos.
50
But again, another important thing that's a part of the nuclear envelope, if you will, that actually kind of separates different portions where there's little pores,
51
is called these nuclear pores.
52
And again, the whole purpose of this is to allow for transport.
53
And what kind of transport?
54
Transport between the cytoplasm to the nucleus or nucleus to the cytoplasm.
55
That's all it is.
56
Pretty straightforward.
57
The next one is this red diced up structure here called the nucleolus.
58
The nucleolus is very, very important.
59
And the reason why is this is the site of a particular type of RNA synthesis.
60
You know there is a particular the type of rRNA, what we call rRNA.
61
So we're going to denote this as rRNA synthesis.
62
This occurs in what structure?
63
This occurs within the nucleolus.
64
Now, the reason why that's important is when you take rRNA, you synthesize it within the nucleolus, and you combine this with protein.
65
So then combine with other types of small proteins, guess what you make?
66
You make ribosomes.
67
So really what we can say is that the nucleolus, which is a component in the nucleus, is important for making ribosomes,
68
which is made up of rRNA and small proteins.
69
The last part of the nucleus is all of these blue structures.
70
You see all these blue structures that are kind of dispersed throughout, I kind of made circles around them.
71
This is called chromatin.
72
This is called chromatin and chromatin is very very important because this is what really makes up who we are as
73
Kind of humans and it's very important for us to know the different components of chromatin
74
So within the nucleus you have this structure called chromatin.
75
So what in the heck is chromatin? chromatin is made up of two primary things DNA and proteins,
76
but the main protein is is histone proteins.
77
Histones.
78
These two things make up our actual genetic material.
79
And this chromatin can actually come in two forms, two important forms.
80
One is called euchromatin.
81
And euchromatin is the loose chromatin, and it's the one that's going to be more for expression of the DNA to transcribe the DNA
82
and make different types of mRNA or undergo replication.
83
So euchromatin should be more in the center of the actual nucleus.
84
And the next one here is going to be hetero, the heterochromatin.
85
And the heterochromatin is going to be the tight chromatin.
86
This is going to be the chromatin that you're actually going to see closer towards the inner membrane of that nuclear envelope.
87
So we're understanding this, right?
88
So we know the different structures and the different components here of the nucleus.
89
The last thing that I want us to understand here is what in the heck does the nucleus do?
90
We're going to go into way more detail in this in future videos, but what you need to remember is that chromatin,
91
which is made up of DNA, we can take DNA and do a bunch of things with it.
92
What can we do with it?
93
We can take DNA and we can make more DNA.
94
What is this called?
95
DNA replication.
96
I can take DNA and make RNA, and that is called transcription.
97
And then also you need to know that there's different types of RNA.
98
What are the different types of RNA?
99
There is tRNA, there is mRNA, and rRNA.
100
So it's important for us to understand this kind of things that are happening with inside the nucleus, which is what?
101
You have DNA replication and transcription, and particularly making of RNA molecules and these are the RNA molecules.
102
And again, we'll go over these in more detail in future videos.
103
But this tells us what the function of the nucleus is and what the components of it are.
104
Let's move on to the next organelles.
105
Okay, so the next thing that you guys need to know here is this next filamentous membranous structure
106
that is located within the cell.
107
This beautiful organelle is called the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
108
So, it's called the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
109
We're going to put ER.
110
So, the rough ER, that's commonly how we refer to it as, right?
111
So the rough endoplasmic reticulum or the rough ER.
112
Now the rough ER, if you notice, it's this filamentous kind of network here.
113
But there's another structure here called the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
114
So you have the rough endoplasmic reticulum and then you have the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
115
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum and rough endoplasmic reticulum differ in what way?
116
This is very simple.
117
You see these little red dots that are located on the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
118
It's called ribosomes.
119
So within the rough ER, this contains ribosomes on that outer kind of membrane structure.
120
On the smooth ER, there is no ribosomes.
121
That's really it.
122
There's nothing much more
123
that you have to know about kind of the structure of the rough ER and the structure of the smooth ER.
124
You know that it's an organelle and the big difference between these structure wise is rough ER is ribosomes, Smooth ER does not have ribosomes.
125
So now the next thing has to come down to what are the differences in function?
126
Because that's really where it kind of lays in, right?
127
So the first thing we have to do is before we move into what it does,
128
we have to kind of pick up a quick point here from the nucleus and move to the rough ER.
129
So you know, we said within the nucleus, you have DNA.
130
And from DNA, you can undergo transcription.
131
What is that called? whenever you go from DNA to RNA.
132
Whenever I go from DNA and I make a molecule called mRNA and that mRNA then binds with a ribosome.
133
Here's our ribosome, a little like red dot there.
134
That ribosome will then do what?
135
It'll undergo the process of translation, taking the RNA and making proteins.
136
Well what happens is that ribosome it's going to start synthesizing and making proteins from the mRNA.
137
So now I'm going to have this protein that gets pushed in here from the ribosome.
138
Now that's important because the rough ER is obviously going to be a site of protein synthesis then.
139
That's one thing we can say.
140
It could be a site of protein synthesis because that's where the ribosomes are kind of sitting on.
141
So that's one function of the rough ER.
142
So one function of the rough ER we can say is is it's a site of protein synthesis.
143
Site of protein synthesis.
144
And we're going to talk a little bit because there's different types of proteins that we make.
145
Proteins that can be within the cytosol, proteins that can be within different organelles, proteins that we can secrete,
146
proteins that we can put into the membrane.
147
Generally, the proteins that the rough ER is making is going to be proteins that will become lysosomes.
148
So proteins that will be incorporated into our lysosomes.
149
proteins that will go and get incorporated into the different organelles, like the membranes of organelles or the cell membrane,
150
or proteins that will be excreted.
151
So that is really the big thing that I want you to remember about the rough ER.
152
Side of protein synthesis, but particularly for these types of proteins.
153
The next thing is what else does it do with the proteins?
154
We know it synthesizes them, but you know what else?
155
Proteins have to fold a particular way for it to be particularly functional.
156
So it also helps with the folding process.
157
So it plays around what's called protein folding.
158
That's very important.
159
So it plays around protein folding.
160
And the next thing is not only does it help with folding the protein in a particular way,
161
it also has little enzymes located kind of in this actual endoplasmic reticulum that can add on little residues,
162
little sugar residues onto this protein, making it active.
163
What is this called?
164
It's called glycosylation.
165
So it can perform what's called glycosylation.
166
And there's a particular type, we'll go into this in more detail, but for the most part, it is called N -type glycosylation.
167
And all that means is if I were to take a protein here, I took the mRNA, took it to the ribosome,
168
ribosome bound to the rough ER.
169
It made the protein, pushed the protein in the filamentous network of the rough ER.
170
It started folding.
171
And then once we have that protein here that's folded properly, I'm going to just add on a little sugar residue.
172
So this is going to be a little sugar residue, and this is going to be my protein.
173
And this is important because this is the way that we activate these proteins.
174
So that is the function of the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
175
Now, the next thing, one last thing for this is, remember, I told you that the site of protein synthesis is for these particular things.
176
So in order for, after the rough ER has kind of gone through these process of synthesizing it, folding it, and then glycosylating it,
177
it then has to package it.
178
So then what happens is it'll package off.
179
So what happens, let's say that here's the protein, the protein will actually bud into this little portion of the actual rough endoplasmic reticulum.
180
And when it does that, that'll actually bud off.
181
And then I have a vesicle.
182
And within that vesicle is going to be my protein.
183
What protein will it become?
184
A lysosomal protein and membrane protein are excreted protein.
185
But in order for that to happen, I have to move this towards the next organelle, which will be the Golgi apparatus.
186
We'll get to that one in a second,
187
but here's going to be that protein that was coming from the rough endoplasmic reticulum and moving towards the Golgi.
188
So now we know all the functions of the rough ER.
189
Now we got to go over the functions of the smooth ER.
190
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum, this is a very interesting structure.
191
So there's a lot of different types of enzymes located within this smooth endoplasmic reticulum,
192
particularly enzymes that are associated with lipid synthesis.
193
That's a big thing I want you to take away from this.
194
So it's primarily associated with what?
195
Lipid synthesis.
196
There's going to be a bunch of different enzymes located within this organelle.
197
And what kind of lipids are we synthesizing?
198
Fatty acids.
199
Fatty acids are a big one.
200
Phospholipids are a big one.
201
What else?
202
You know there's another really important cholesterol molecule, well cholesterol, so I kind of gave it away.
203
So cholesterol and cholesterol is important because this can become hormones, steroid hormones, testosterone, progesterone, estrogen, all that good stuff.
204
So this is the big thing I want you to remember is this is the site of lipid synthesis.
205
So we take precursor molecules that we get from the cell.
206
Let's say here's a precursor molecule.
207
That precursor molecule for the fatty acids, phospholipids, cholesterol, it'll get taken up into this smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
208
The enzymes in it will start using these precursors to pop out little cholesterol or lipid molecules.
209
So now from this, we're going to have the Smoothie Art take the precursor molecules, perform the lipid synthesis process with the enzymes,
210
and then bud off a particular vesicle which is going to contain what?
211
Fatty acids, phospholipids, and cholesterol.
212
And then guess where we could send this?
213
We could send it again to the Golgi or maybe even send it to the cell membrane.
214
And then from the cell membrane, we may release out cholesterol.
215
We may release out fatty acids.
216
Pretty cool, right?
217
There's another set of enzymes that are important here.
218
The next set of enzymes is called CYP450.
219
You're like, what the heck is that?
220
CYP450 enzymes are very, very important for detoxification.
221
So you know whenever your liver, your liver has a very high concentration of these enzymes.
222
Because that's our detox center, right?
223
So if you go to your liver, there is lots of this enzyme.
224
And the reason why is any drugs, any toxins, any alcohol, you know,
225
alcohol, ethanol, ETOH, any of these things have to go to the liver.
226
And what your liver does is, is it undergoes a process called biotransformation or xenobiotic metabolism.
227
And it breaks down these substances.
228
And it's because of these enzymes located within the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
229
So it undergoes what's called biotransformation.
230
Ba -boom.
231
That is important.
232
The next thing here, and this is an interesting one.
233
You know within our cells, we have glycogen, right?
234
You know glycogen, it's basically a big polymer of glucose.
235
And whenever our body needs energy, that glycogen can get broken down into glucose.
236
But there's a particular step.
237
Whenever you're breaking down glycogen into glucose, there's an intermediate between this called glucose 6 -phosphate.
238
Well, in order for glucose 6 -phosphate to get converted into glucose, guess what it needs?
239
There's a particular enzyme on the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
240
And that enzyme will need to take the glucose in.
241
You have a little transporter that'll take the glucose 6 -phosphate in
242
and then a particular enzyme that'll rip off that phosphate on the 6 -carbon of glucose and make, well, off glucose 6 -phosphate and make glucose.
243
So the important thing to remember here is that this actual smooth endoplasmic reticulum is also important for glucose 6 -phosphate metabolism.
244
So it's also important for glucose 6 -phosphate metabolism.
245
Ba -boom!
246
roasted.
247
Last one.
248
Last function.
249
You know this is a smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
250
It's in a lot of different organs, but you know organs that contain lots and lots and lots of calcium,
251
like in our muscles, there's kind of an analogous structure there called the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
252
These can store lots of calcium.
253
And you know there's little pumps that are located on the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
254
And whenever we need calcium, whether it be for different types of transport processes or for muscle contraction, guess what?
255
We can pump that calcium out into the cytosol and utilize it for all these different types of chemical processes.
256
So what is the last function here for the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
257
It also stores calcium.
258
Ba -boom!
259
All right, we've covered the functions of the rough ER and the smooth ER.
260
Let's now move on to the Golgi apparatus.
261
All right, engineers, so what have we established up to this point?
262
So we know that we've understood the function of the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
263
We understand the function of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
264
And again, to kind of go off of that, that smoothie R, again, what did we say?
265
It could also make the different phospholipids and cholesterol and different types of fatty acids.
266
And that also, from the smooth endoplasmic reticulum, can get sent to the Golgi.
267
Now, the vesicles that are coming from these two areas, primarily the rough endoplasmic reticulum, we're going to focus on from this point.
268
But again, realize that everything from the Smoothie R as well.
269
Alright, so what is the name of this next organelle that we have to talk about?
270
This is a very, very important structure called the Golgi apparatus, right?
271
So we're going to call it the Golgi.
272
Now, the Golgi apparatus is a very important kind of like packaging organelle, if you will.
273
So it takes these vesicles coming from the Roughie R, from the Smoothie R.
274
And when it takes it into the Golgi, there's an anatomical term here.
275
On this side of the Golgi, where these vesicles from the Roughie R and Smoothie R are going to,
276
this part of the Golgi here is called the cis Golgi.
277
Okay, or they call it the cis face of the Golgi, but we're gonna call it cis Golgi.
278
Then what happens is through these systematic steps, these proteins and different types of fatty molecules
279
that get taken to the Golgi will go through the Golgi and as it goes through the Golgi it'll actually bud off.
280
Alright, so then you're gonna bud off some type of molecule in the Golgi, whether that be a protein, whether that be lipids, cholesterol, whatever.
281
It buds off and then leaves the Golgi.
282
This side where the vesicles are coming out of the Golgi and going towards lysosomes or cell membranes or whatever, this is called the...
283
trans -Golgi or the trans -face of the Golgi.
284
So that's an important kind of anatomical term or structure component of the actual Golgi that you need to know.
285
The next thing here is we have to kind of primarily focus on the function.
286
So primary function is it's receiving vesicles containing proteins
287
and different types of sugar molecules maybe attached to it as well as different lipids from the rough ER and smoothie R.
288
That's the first function.
289
So first function that you need to know here.
290
So it's receiving vesicles from the rough ER and the smooth ER.
291
That's the first thing we know.
292
It's receiving the vesicles containing proteins or fatty molecules.
293
Now let's focus on those proteins because that's where it's more important.
294
The proteins that are getting taken into the Golgi, it might have to modify.
295
We saw that it was folded and modified a little bit in the rough ER,
296
but the Golgi might have to modify it even a little bit more.
297
And how does it do that?
298
So this modification step is very important, and it's again through a couple different reactions.
299
Remember we have what's called glycosylation reactions that we talked about with the rough ER?
300
The Golgi can do the same thing.
301
It can do what's called a glycosylation.
302
But this glycosylation reactions where it adds on sugar residues, there's two types.
303
One is the N -type and one is O -type.
304
What's really important to remember is that the Golgi is the only one that can do O -type glycosylations.
305
In other words, I'm adding a sugar residue onto the oxygen component of a protein.
306
That's all it really means.
307
N -type, you're adding a sugar residue to the nitrogen component of the protein.
308
Nothing special.
309
The other really important step here is that it also has to phosphorylate specific types of proteins and that is very important.
310
There's a disease called Icel disease and it's actually related to this phosphorylation reaction.
311
So that's why we need to know it.
312
So it modifies proteins in some lipid molecules through these glycosylation and phosphorylation reactions.
313
The next thing is, is it packages these molecules, right?
314
And then after it packages these molecules into their own little vesicles, remember how we said that these molecules will go through the Golgi,
315
undergo these modifications, get stuck into like a little vesicle, butt off, and then pop off here.
316
It's going to pop off, right?
317
So now I got my vesicle containing my proteins and my lipids and all these things that have been modified even more.
318
Now what happens is these molecules, we already talked about where they're going to go.
319
They're going to go and become lysosomal proteins.
320
They're going to go and become membrane proteins or they're going to go and be excreted out of the cell.
321
That is the destination and the function of the Golgi apparatus.
322
So now we understand that.
323
Now that we've done that, we have to talk about another little structure here, which is our cell membrane.
324
It's another component of the cell.
325
All right.
326
So the next really, really important component of the cell is the cell membrane.
327
So what we're going to do is we're going to kind of zoom in on a different part here of the cell,
328
right, which is our cell membrane.
329
And there's different components of the cell membrane.
330
So if you look here, you see like these little red dots with like little, you know, fingers hanging out.
331
This is a part of what's called our phospholipid bilayer.
332
So when we talk about the cell membrane, there's a bunch of different structures that are involved within the cell membrane,
333
and they obviously carry out a very important function.
334
So what are the different components of the cell membrane?
335
Now the first component here is these little red little thingies.
336
What are these little red thingies?
337
These are called, this is a part of your phospholipid bilayer.
338
So you have two components of it.
339
If we kind of zoom out on this little guy, you have these two components.
340
This head component of this phospholipid bilayer is actually the phospholipid.
341
And what you need to know about this is that this is polar.
342
What does that mean?
343
Polar means it's water soluble.
344
So it's the hydrophilic portion and it can interact with water because it has lots of negative charges on it.
345
The other component here is the little tail.
346
This tail, these are fatty acids, and fatty acids are really saturated with hydrogen, and so because of that, they are very non -polar.
347
Hydrophobic, don't like to interact with water because they have no real negative or slight changes in charge.
348
That's the important thing here.
349
So we have this on both sides.
350
On the inner cell surface, you would have this phospholipid kind of portion pointing inwards.
351
On the outer side, you would have it pointing outwards.
352
And then you have the tails pointing in towards one another.
353
The next thing here is you see this little green structure, which is kind of lodged between these phospholipid.
354
This green structure here is called cholesterol.
355
Now you're like, what the heck?
356
Why is cholesterol coming?
357
Oh, and they even add on here.
358
Where could that cholesterol come from?
359
The smoothie R.
360
We packaged it, sent it to the Golgi and then incorporated into the membrane.
361
We're putting things together in NGNerds, but the cholesterol is also incorporated in there.
362
And the cholesterol is important because it controls like fluidity.
363
Okay.
364
So it controls fluidity.
365
All right.
366
So again, to recap this whole idea of cholesterol with fluidity, again, it's just important to remember that the amount of cholesterol,
367
if you wanted to think about it like this, the amount of cholesterol in the cell membrane, the more of it you have,
368
the less space there's going to be between the phospholipids.
369
So there's less fluidity.
370
So more cholesterol, less fluidity.
371
And the less cholesterol you have here, the more space there's going to be between the phospholipids.
372
And so there's going to be more fluidity.
373
So less cholesterol, more fluidity.
374
So that's an important concept with that.
375
The next component of the cell membrane, so we have the cholesterol, we have the phospholipid bilayer, the next big component here is the proteins.
376
So the next one that you're going to have here is these little proteins.
377
And these proteins here, my pink marker here, these proteins, there's different types of proteins.
378
There's what's called integral proteins and peripheral proteins.
379
And what is really, really important for these proteins is that they have various different functions.
380
They can act as transporters.
381
They can act as little enzymes.
382
They can act as linker proteins between other cells.
383
So they have a lot of different components and a lot of different functions to them.
384
But again, there is integral proteins and peripheral proteins.
385
The big thing I want you to take away from this, the cell membrane, is that it basically acts as a barrier.
386
I mean, I know that sounds super obvious, but it is a barrier.
387
It's a selectively permeable barrier and only allows for particular types of diffusion that we'll get into later.
388
But there is what's called simple diffusion, right?
389
There's what's called facilitated diffusion.
390
And then there's different types of what's called vesicular transport.
391
And all of these types of processes are involving the cell membrane.
392
So in other words, moving things from outside the cell to inside the cell,
393
we have particular types of processes that we'll have to go into more detail about.
394
But again, big thing I want you to take away from the cell membrane is these different components
395
and how it acts as a barrier for particular types of transport processes.
396
Alright, let's move on to the lysosomes.
397
Alright, so the next structure here is going to be our lysosomes, our beautiful little lysosomes.
398
Now these are very, very cool kind of organelles.
399
Now what lysosomes are important is they're like these little spherical organelles
400
and they contain very interesting little enzymes inside of them and these enzymes are called
401
hydrolytic enzymes
402
and really the simplest way of describing these hydrolytic enzymes is you have different types you have proteases
403
which means that they break down proteins you have nucleases
404
which means that they break down nucleic acids you have lipases which means they break down lipids and And you have glucosidases,
405
which means they break down carbohydrates.
406
So all of these hydrolytic enzymes are located within these little organelles.
407
So why is that important?
408
Any macromolecules that you bring into the cell, whether that be from a white blood cell undergoing what's called phagocytosis,
409
whether that be you actually undergoing an endocytosis process from, it's called clathrin -coated mediated endocytosis.
410
That whole process, when you're bringing something in, you're bringing in particle matter.
411
And these lysosomes are responsible for using these enzymes to break down macromolecules,
412
such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates.
413
That's all they do.
414
So that's important thing to remember from these hydrolytic enzymes is they're going to be responsible for doing what?
415
These all break down macromolecules.
416
They break down macromolecules.
417
Their respective macromolecules, as we already said.
418
Okay, that's one thing that I really want you to remember.
419
The second thing, you know, when organelles are getting worn down, maybe our mitochondria has just had a rough day.
420
Maybe the cytoskeleton is starting to get all jacked up.
421
Maybe our ribosomes have just, they've pooped out and they're done.
422
When these organelles have reached the end of their kind of, let's say functional capacity, we don't want to keep them anymore.
423
We want to recycle them.
424
We want to out with the old and with the new.
425
So what happens is these lysosomes, you'll actually take and package.
426
Let's say that the ribosomes are done.
427
They're tired.
428
They're pooped out.
429
I'm going to form a little vesicle around these ribosomes.
430
And then what I'm going to do is I'm going to send it to the lysosome.
431
And what did I say that the ribosomes are made up of?
432
Proteins and RNA.
433
So what do you think?
434
Which enzymes are going to start breaking down this ribosome if you bring it to this lysosome, the proteases and the nucleases,
435
and it'll start breaking down that actual organelle.
436
What is that called?
437
autophagy.
438
So another important thing that you have to remember is that this is one thing, breaking down macromolecules.
439
The second thing is it undergoes autophagy of organelles.
440
Ba -boom.
441
Last thing.
442
Let's say that a cell has actually been severely damaged.
443
You've really damaged this cell.
444
The point of the cell is living and surviving anymore is that it's not going to happen.
445
You know what I'm going to do?
446
I'm going to just have these lysosomes bust open and I'm going to have all of these enzymes,
447
proteases, nucleases, lipase, glucosidases, guess what they're going to do?
448
They're going to break down all the macromolecule components of the cell.
449
What is that called?
450
That's called autolysis.
451
So that's the next thing to remember is autolysis of damaged cells.
452
Okay.
453
So cells that even if they are damaged and you wanted to repair them.
454
There's no point of even repairing them at that point.
455
It's time to just start all over.
456
These things will just bust open and release their enzymes and start breaking down the cell.
457
This is the functions of the lysosomes.
458
They're little angry little buggers, aren't they?
459
All right, next one.
460
Pretty cool ones.
461
These are actually kind of one of my favorite organelles, and these are called peroxisomes. So peroxisomes.
462
These are also spherical kind of like little organelles.
463
And they contain a lot of different enzymes, but by far one of the most interesting enzymes that they contain is there's two of them.
464
One is called catalase and the other one is called oxidase.
465
They have other enzymes, okay?
466
They have like other like metabolic enzymes.
467
We're going to title them as that because it can be kind of confusing if you get into more detail than that.
468
But these are the big enzymes.
469
So the first one I want you to remember is the catalases, oxidases, and then other metabolic enzymes.
470
Why am I kind of telling you all of these things?
471
Well, the catalase and the oxidase is important for free radicals.
472
You know, whenever a cell not normally obtains oxygen, that oxygen can get sometimes converted into what's called a superoxide anion.
473
Then that superoxide anion can get converted into hydrogen peroxide.
474
And then that hydrogen peroxide can get converted into what's called a hydroxyl radical.
475
These things right here, from here to here, all of these molecules are free radicals,
476
very dangerous little suckers, combined onto proteins and nucleic acids and cell membrane and just jack the cell up.
477
We don't want these things to accumulate.
478
The particular one that loves to accumulate, though, in these peroxisomes because of what's called fatty acid metabolism is hydrogen peroxide.
479
It really likes to accumulate in there.
480
So what happens is these peroxisomes have lots of this catalase enzyme.
481
And what they do is they take this hydrogen peroxide and use that catalase enzyme to convert this into water and oxygen,
482
which is not that dangerous, right?
483
That's what we want.
484
So that's one of the beautiful things.
485
Be thankful for these suckers, these little peroxisomes.
486
They're constantly breaking down this hydrogen peroxide, which is a potential free radical, and making water and oxygen.
487
That's one thing.
488
You know that's important for fatty acid metabolism?
489
So they contain little enzymes here, particularly catalase.
490
You know catalase not only is important for these free radicals, but it also can break down fatty acids, the first step in fatty acid metabolism.
491
So it plays a role in what's called fatty acid oxidation.
492
Without going into too much detail, there's actually two types, alpha and beta.
493
And really all this is, is there's different, what's called branch chain, alpha breaks down what's called branch chain fatty acids.
494
And then beta breaks down what's called very long chain fatty acids.
495
But either way, you're breaking down these fatty acids into what's called acetyl -CoA molecules.
496
Then not only can it break down fatty acids, but it can actually break down the fatty acids into acetyl -CoA.
497
And then we can use those acetyl -CoA molecules to make lipids.
498
So we can actually make lipids and cholesterol.
499
You know cholesterol is important because this is also important for making different types of hormones, steroid hormones and bile acids.
500
But this is the one I want to focus on for a second.
501
The lipid that it makes is very important within the white matter of the brain called plasmalogen.
502
and this plasmalogen is a very particular type of lipid that is important for the white matter.
503
So it's an important component of the myelin within the white matter.
504
So you can have an idea that if there's an issue with the peroxisomes and they can't actually synthesize plasmalogen, what happens to the white matter?
505
There may be a decrease in white matter production and that may lead to some injuries to the actual nervous system.
506
The last thing I want you to remember is that there's also a teensy bit of...
507
alcohol metabolism.
508
So it also can break down ethanol.
509
There's a tiny little enzyme, that catalase enzyme again, coming into play, not only with the fatty acids, but also with the ethanol metabolism.
510
It can also break down ethanol.
511
So these are some of the functions of the paroxysm, very, very important type of little organelle.
512
Now that we've covered that one, let's go into the mitochondria.
513
All right, Ninjas, so the next organelle that we're going to talk about here is are mitochondria.
514
Now the mitochondria is a very cool enzyme, I'm sorry, a very cool organelle,
515
and this thing is commonly just broken down into like the simplest way of explaining it.
516
Everybody always knows this.
517
It's the powerhouse of the cell.
518
It's the the site of ATP synthesis.
519
Yes, that is true, but we're going to explain about how it actually does the ATP synthesis.
520
But before we do that again, let's kind of highlight some of the components of this mitochondria.
521
If you look at the mitochondria of an outer membrane, so this is the outer membrane,
522
and it's important to remember that the outer membrane is a smooth membrane.
523
And also, it has a very high permeability.
524
There's a lot of transport proteins on the outer membrane.
525
If you look here, you have this little folded membrane here on the inside.
526
That is called the inner membrane.
527
And usually on most cells, we call this inner membrane, the folding, cristae.
528
We call it the cristae of the inner membrane.
529
Now, this inner membrane has less permeability.
530
It's less permeable to the transport of different types of molecules going in and out of it.
531
Okay?
532
So that's the basics.
533
Inside of the mitochondria, you have this structure in here called the mitochondrial matrix.
534
And this is where a lot of the metabolic reactions are occurring.
535
And it's also where the mitochondrial DNA is found.
536
All right?
537
So we have an idea of the structure of the mitochondria.
538
The next thing is the function.
539
So it's obviously the site of ATP synthesis.
540
But if we were to just take it just a little step further, when we make ATP, we make it in two primary ways.
541
One is called oxidative phosphorylation.
542
The other one is called substrate phosphorylation.
543
The mitochondria has little proteins on its inner membrane
544
that are very important and in a component of what's called the electron transport chain.
545
So ATP synthesis on the mitochondria,
546
in the mitochondria, occurs via the electron transport chain and this type of ATP synthesis is called oxidative phosphorylation.
547
Okay?
548
And that's carried out by this electron transport chain.
549
The other thing that's important with the mitochondria is that there's a lot of metabolic reactions that occur here.
550
A lot of metabolic reactions.
551
What are some of these metabolic reactions that occur within the mitochondria?
552
Well, some of them, as we know, the Krebs cycle.
553
That's an easy one, right?
554
So the Krebs cycle occurs here where you have a lot of different intermediates
555
that are involved whenever acetyl -CoA gets converted into the entire complete structure, right?
556
Where you have the acetyl -CoA and then the isocitrate, citrate, alpha -ketoglutarate, all that stuff there.
557
That's a part of this metabolic reaction.
558
The other one is you have heme synthesis.
559
So you're making the heme component of different types of pigment molecules
560
that are part of the electron transport chain as well as synthesis of heme for hemoglobin or myoglobin.
561
The other one is the urea cycle occurs here.
562
So the urea cycle is another big one where you're taking different types of molecules like ammonia and turning it into urea.
563
The other one is called gluconeogenesis,
564
where you're taking things like amino acids and glycerol and odd chain fatty acids and converting it into glucose, a new glucose molecule.
565
And the last thing that can occur here is what's called ketogenesis, where you're making ketone bodies from acetyl -CoA.
566
So these are some of the metabolic pathways that occur within the mitochondria.
567
One other thing to remember is I already told you about this, but in the mitochondria, it has its own little DNA.
568
So we'll put this up here.
569
This is called mitochondrial DNA.
570
And this actually comes from the mother.
571
Okay.
572
So this is actually going to be DNA that comes from the mother.
573
And this DNA can actually make tiny little proteins that can be involved in some of these metabolic reactions on its own.
574
All right.
575
So the next structure here is going to be our ribosomes.
576
This is the next organelle.
577
Now, ribosomes, we've already kind of alluded to these already, so we're going to have a pretty quick run through these.
578
But obviously, we know that these ribosomes, let's kind of talk a little bit about their structure.
579
There's two components of the ribosome.
580
So you have this large ribosomal subunit.
581
So this is the large subunit.
582
And usually they always like to say this in eukaryotic cells.
583
This is your 60s ribosome.
584
S means Svedberg unit.
585
But again, large subunit.
586
And then the other one is called your small ribosomal subunit.
587
And in the eukaryotic cells, this is a 40S, our 40 Svedberg unit of the ribosome.
588
Again, kind of a very non -essential thing to remember, but again, big thing to remember is that there's two units,
589
a small subunit and a large subunit.
590
The next thing that we have to remember, ribosomes are made up of what two things?
591
We already talked about this.
592
rRNA and proteins.
593
So that's the next thing.
594
The next thing is that ribosomes can be found in two places.
595
We already know one.
596
It could be found on the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
597
Whenever ribosomes are bound to the rough endoplasmic reticulum, we call these, I know it's super obvious,
598
but it's called membrane -bound ribosomes.
599
Okay, so membrane -bound ribosomes.
600
But if these are just kind of in the cytosol freely circulating, then they are called cytosolic ribosomes or free ribosomes.
601
The reason why we should understand the difference between these two is that if you guys remember,
602
the ribosomes that were on the actual rough endoplasmic reticulum, what happened?
603
What do ribosomes do?
604
I guess that's the big question to ask.
605
Let's actually write that down first.
606
What do ribosomes do?
607
They take mRNA and another structure called tRNA and make proteins.
608
So they're basically a site of protein synthesis, right?
609
And we also give this a particular name called translation.
610
So whenever you're taking things like mRNA and making proteins.
611
Well, what happens is if you have ribosomes that are bound to the rough ER, what are those proteins going to become?
612
Remember what we said?
613
Those will become proteins that'll be a part of lysosomes.
614
Those would be proteins that'll become a part of the membrane, like integral or peripheral proteins,
615
or they'll be proteins that we're going to excrete out of the cell.
616
Cytosolic ribosomes, those are just going to be making little enzymes
617
and different types of proteins inside the cell that will not leave the cell.
618
So that is important.
619
So these are going to be making cytosolic proteins.
620
And I know that sounds obviously kind of pretty straightforward, but again, it's something worth mentioning.
621
These are making cytosolic proteins like different types of enzymes
622
that are involved in a lot of your metabolic pathways that occur in the cytosol.
623
Okay?
624
So that's important.
625
So that gives us the importance of ribosomes, what their structure is, and what they do.
626
Now let's finish off with the cytoskeleton.
627
All right, engineer.
628
So now we got to talk about the cytoskeleton.
629
Now, obviously when we talk about the cytoskeleton, the cytoskeleton, we're only showing it in this kind of one point here.
630
But if you really were to show the way the cytoskeleton looks,
631
it would, it would make this board look disastrous because there would just be lines and fibers all over the entire cell.
632
And that's an important thing to remember
633
that even though we're showing this in kind of like a static zoomed in view of these cytoskeletal elements,
634
remember they are scattered all around the cell.
635
That's an important thing to remember.
636
Okay, when we talk about the cytoskeleton there are three different structures of the cytoskeleton.
637
The first one that I want us to talk about is called your micro filaments.
638
Your micro filaments.
639
And sometimes to be honest with you we just refer to this as actin.
640
Okay, and I know you guys have heard of actin.
641
If you guys have watched our videos before you've heard this term actin.
642
It's one of the proteins that are commonly used in muscle contraction, right?
643
So that's an important thing to remember.
644
But when you look at actin, there's these little monomers of actin and they all come together
645
and make this long polymer of actin and you get multiple strands of it.
646
Big thing I want you to remember with this actin structure.
647
First thing when we talk about function,
648
you know when you have a muscle cell there's another protein that actin binds with to cause contraction and relaxation.
649
What is that protein?
650
My So whenever you have actin and myosin, particularly in a contractile type of cell, what can this do?
651
This can lead to muscle contraction and relaxation.
652
So this is going to be a protein that can be involved in muscle contraction.
653
That is a very important thing to remember.
654
So one thing I want you to remember with the microfilaments or actin is that if it's associated with myosin, it can be involved in contraction.
655
The second thing, you know in a cell, if we were to have like a, for example, there's a process called cytokinesis.
656
kinesis.
657
When a cell is undergoing mitosis, if you imagine, let's say that here I had a cell that was going to become two cells.
658
So here we had one cell that's becoming two cells.
659
Right around this central portion here, you form this little constriction ring.
660
This little constriction ring around this point here.
661
These actin filaments form that constriction ring and eventually squeeze it to the point where guess what happens?
662
You butt off from one cell, two daughter cells.
663
So it's important for the cytokinesis part of mitosis.
664
So cytokinesis of mitosis.
665
So it forms like a little constriction ring around that, which helps to split the cells apart.
666
The other thing it's important for, you know white blood cells.
667
If you take a white blood cell,
668
let's imagine here, I have a white blood cell and I I want to move a white blood cell from the blood,
669
I mean, from the blood and have it leave and go out into the tissues.
670
Well, here's a vessel.
671
And you know the vessel is lined with what's called endothelial cells, right?
672
Well, what happens is that this actual white blood cell wants to be able to squeeze through those actual capillaries.
673
What is that called?
674
Diapodesis.
675
In order for it to do that, it needs to be able to change the shape of the cell.
676
What do we say cytoskeletal elements do?
677
They help to control cell shape, structure, all that good stuff.
678
So what happens is the actins polymerize in such a way
679
that it allows for this cell to kind of create a particular shape.
680
So all the actin molecules will come at this point
681
and create like this little shape where the white blood cell can squeeze out of the cell.
682
So what is that called?
683
Diapedesis.
684
Diapedesis of white blood cells.
685
And let's take this one more step.
686
Let's see you have a white blood cell, okay?
687
And here's a little pathogen out here.
688
Here's a little pathogen.
689
And I wanted to take this pathogen in.
690
In order for me to do that, I need to create these little things called pseudopods.
691
And what happens is, I create these little arms or little extensions that come out here to surround that pathogen.
692
The actin molecules need to come in
693
and help to create these little arms that'll basically wrap around the pathogen and bring it in.
694
What is that called?
695
Phagocytosis.
696
So it's also involved in phagocytosis of white blood cells.
697
Babushka, we did it.
698
All right, next one.
699
The next one is the intermediate filaments.
700
The intermediate filaments.
701
The intermediate filaments are a very interesting type of structure.
702
And one of the things that we need to know about the intermediate filaments is that they're primarily very tough, high tensile, not very much movement.
703
They don't have a lot of give to them.
704
So why that is important is let's say that we take here a cell.
705
Here is another cell.
706
Okay, we have two cells.
707
And then you know around the cell, there's a lot of protein network out here.
708
What is this called?
709
All this protein network that sits outside of the cell.
710
This is called your extracellular matrix.
711
It's made up of collagen and elastin and a bunch of different types of proteins.
712
We know that, right?
713
What happens is we take this protein here, let's actually draw it in another color here.
714
Let's use this blue here.
715
This protein here, let's say here we have one end of it.
716
It can connect to, from the cell, it can connect the cell to the extracellular matrix.
717
That's one thing it can do.
718
So it can help to hold the cell and anchor it to the extracellular matrix.
719
The other thing here is maybe I have another protein here, another protein here, and these cells.
720
These can connect cell to cell.
721
So they help to anchor and hold the cells to each other.
722
And then let's add another thing in here.
723
You know, these little organelles, remember I told you that if you imagine the cytoskeleton, they're all over this cell.
724
Imagine here, I draw an organelle, a mitochondria, or, you know, the nucleus, whatever.
725
Here's our nucleus, right?
726
These cytoskeletal elements are also going to be bound to these organelles.
727
So it helps to anchor
728
Anchor the actual cell to the extracellular matrix, anchor cell to cell, and anchor the organelles inside of the cell
729
so they're not just kind of like freaking floating around everywhere.
730
Right?
731
So that is the function of the intermediate filaments.
732
So three functions is an anchor, if you will, and it anchors what things?
733
One is cell to cell.
734
Two is cell to the extracellular matrix.
735
And three is cell to different organelles.
736
Ba -boom.
737
We done did it.
738
Okay.
739
So the last component here, the last part, is this microtubules.
740
These are very, very cool cytoskeletal elements.
741
Okay.
742
And what I really want you to remember about microtubules.
743
Okay is they're made up of two different types of protein units.
744
So I drew these in different colors.
745
A pink protein, maybe that represents what's called alpha tubulin.
746
Pretty straightforward, right?
747
And then with my blue marker here, another little dot here is called beta tubulin.
748
These things come together and form these little filaments.
749
And then like 13 filaments come together and eventually form this entire microtubular structure.
750
Why this is important is very, very interesting.
751
So microtubules, one of the really big function here is that it provides what's called intracellular transport.
752
Okay.
753
Now, it seems odd, but on these microtubules, you have these little proteins.
754
Imagine here you have like a little protein here.
755
Okay.
756
these proteins there's two different types of them there's what's called dynein
757
and another one which is called kinesin and these are called motor proteins
758
and what these motor proteins can do is they can bind on to organelles
759
they can bind on to different vesicles which maybe have proteins
760
or lipids or things that you're moving towards the cell membrane
761
or bringing in to the cell these are transporting them throughout the cell to different places that they need to go to.
762
That is very important.
763
So again, it's acting as the railway, right?
764
Or the railroad system by which you're transporting different substances by having to use these motor proteins.
765
Big thing to take away from this, there's no free lunch on this.
766
This requires ATP to drive this process.
767
This is an ATP dependent process for this intracellular motor protein transport.
768
The second thing that's important for is cell division.
769
You know, whenever a cell is going through the mitosis phase, there is this phase where you have the chromosomes like this, right?
770
And they're all lined up.
771
Okay. And metaphase.
772
Well, at that point here, the centromere, there's little proteins on the side called the kinetochore.
773
What happens is these microtubules, they click in to that kinetochore.
774
And what happens is as they start to break down, they depolymerize, it separates these chromosomes into the two separate sister chromatids.
775
So again, big thing, microtubules connect to the kinetochore where the centromere is, the center part of the chromosome, and separate them into sister chromatids.
776
So that's the other important thing is cell division, particularly separating separates the chromatids.
777
Okay, the third thing here is it is important for cellular extensions, cell extensions.
778
And what I mean by these extensions is there's two big structures that you form the base of these structures.
779
And you form what's called the cilia, which is a very important structure structure and you form what's called flagella.
780
These are structures that again, you have motor proteins like dynes and things like that that are incorporated into this, these cellular extensions.
781
But what happens is these cilia and flagella, they create a beating like motion or twisting like motion.
782
And what that helps for is that if you have these motor proteins, which are constantly utilizing ATP to beat and create this movement here,
783
cilia is good in our respiratory tract because it helps to clear out mucus.
784
It's also in the fallopian tubes.
785
You know when you have to move the oocyte or the ovum in this case, if it's fertilized, you have to move it towards the uterus.
786
We need those things and microtubules make up the base of that cilia.
787
Flagella, in order for the sperm to be able to move towards the oocyte or the, in this case, the secondary oocyte,
788
it needs to have that type of motion.
789
And again, microtubules make up the base of the flagella and utilize these dynein proteins to create that whipping motion.
790
So now we have an idea of what these microtubules do.
791
All right, Ninja Nerds.
792
So in this video, we covered the structure and function of the cell.
793
It was a long one, but I hope it made sense.
794
And I truly hope that you guys enjoyed it.
795
I hope you guys learned a lot.
796
If you guys followed through this entire process of how I study, prepare, draw, and then go through the lecture,
797
I hope that you guys were able to come up with a similar process and I hope it helped.
798
All right, Ninja Nerds, as always, we thank you, love you, and until next time.
799
Thank you.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
