fluid mosaic model — The currently accepted model of cell membranes in which the membrane is a lipid bilayer with integral proteins buried in the lipid, and peripheral proteins more loosely attached to the membrane surface … Dictionary of microbiology
Model lipid bilayer — A model lipid bilayer is any bilayer assembled in vitro, as opposed to the bilayer of natural cell membranes or covering various sub cellular structures like the nucleus. A model bilayer can be made with either synthetic or natural lipids. The… … Wikipedia
Phospholipid-Bilayer — Biomembranen dienen als Trennschicht (Membranen) zwischen verschiedenen Bereichen innerhalb einer lebenden Zelle oder auch zwischen dem Inneren einer Zelle und dem Zellaußenraum (im Falle der Zellmembran). Innerhalb der Zelle trennen Biomembranen … Deutsch Wikipedia
Davson–Danielli model — In 1935, Hugh Davson and James Danielli proposed a model of the cell membrane in which the phospholipid bilayer lay between two layers of globular protein[1]. The phosopholipid bilayer had already been proposed by Gorter and Grendel in 1925[2],… … Wikipedia
Lipid bilayer — [ phosphatidylcholine.] A lipid bilayer or bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) is a membrane composed of lipid molecules (usually phospholipids). The lipid bilayer is a critical component of all biological membranes, including cell membranes, and so is… … Wikipedia

Elasticity of cell membranes — A cell membrane defines a boundary between the living cell and its environment. It consists of lipids, proteins,carbohydrates etc. Lipids and proteins are dominant components of membranes. One of the principal types of lipids in membranes is… … Wikipedia
Lipid raft — organisation, region (1) is standard lipid bilayer, while region (2) is a lipid raft. The plasma membrane of cells is made of a combination of glycosphingolipids and protein receptors organized in glycolipoprotein microdomains termed lipid… … Wikipedia
