välismembraanis
Välismembraanis is a term used in the field of medicine and biology to describe the outer layer of a cell. This layer is also known as the plasma membrane or cell membrane. It is a selectively permeable barrier that surrounds the cell and controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell. The välismembraanis is composed of a phospholipid bilayer, which provides a fluid structure that allows for the passage of certain molecules and ions. Embedded within this bilayer are various proteins, including integral and peripheral proteins, which play crucial roles in cell signaling, transport, and adhesion. The välismembraanis also contains carbohydrates, which can serve as recognition sites for other cells and molecules. This outer layer is essential for maintaining the integrity and function of the cell, as it regulates the exchange of nutrients, waste products, and signaling molecules.
