Nature - Insight: Membrane biology
Nature tiene un suplemento excelente en biologia de membranas esta semana:
"Biological membranes surround and compartmentalize cells. They form the interface between the cell and its environment, and are key players in cellular homoeostasis and metabolic-energy transduction. This Insight provides a flavour of the many facets of contemporary membrane biology.
Biological membranes are more complex than was first thought when the 'fluid mosaic model' was proposed in 1972. Membranes are a mixture of many different types of lipidic and protein components, and their relative amounts and composition differ between functionally distinct domains. There is, however, some fluidity between these membrane compartments as vesicles bud off from one compartment and fuse with another. Ongoing studies are revealing the protein and lipidic signals that control the exquisite specificity of these dynamic vesicular processes."
