Cell membrane, artwork C016 / 0613
Computer artwork of a cutaway side view of the human cell membrane. The cell Membrane is a complex part of the cell that controls what can get in and out of the cell. The membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules and controls the movement of substances in and out of cells. Shown is the lipidlayer (blue), a tunnel protein (brown, in the foreground left), carrier proteins (brown, in the foreground right). In the background carbohydrate chains (green), collagen (red) and fybronectin glycoprotein (orange)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate and vital structure of the human cell membrane. In this computer artwork, we are offered a cutaway side view that allows us to delve into the complexity of this essential cellular component. The cell membrane acts as a gatekeeper, meticulously controlling what enters and exits the cell. Highlighted in blue is the lipid layer, forming a protective barrier around the cell. At the forefront on the left, we observe a tunnel protein in brown, which facilitates specific molecules' passage through its channel. On the right foreground, carrier proteins also aid in transporting substances across this selective membrane. Intriguingly displayed in green at the background are carbohydrate chains that play crucial roles in cellular recognition and signaling processes. Additionally, collagen (red) and fybronectin glycoprotein (orange) contribute to maintaining structural integrity within cells. The image provides an insight into how ions and organic molecules move dynamically through various channels within this complex network. It emphasizes both diffusion mechanisms and active transport facilitated by proteins embedded within or spanning across this phospholipid bilayer. Overall, PASIEKA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY's stunning visual representation captures not only our fascination with cellular biology but also highlights how fundamental understanding these microscopic structures is for comprehending life itself.
