This text gives a short introduction to the biology of membranes and transmembrane proteins especially ion channels and ion pumps. Based on basic laws of chemical physics describing membrane potentials, ion channel switching, and osmotic pressure, it will be possible to develop a model for the electrical activity of cells of the sinoatrial node. The equations are studied with numerical methods. The results are found to be in good agreement with experimental results.
