In addition to metabolic differences, the anatomical, physiological, and biochemical
differences in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of the human and common laboratory animals …

One of the challenges of contemporary cell biology is to unravel how the molecular
composition of the different cellular compartments is generated and maintainedduring the …

The various membranes of eukaryotic cells differ in composition, but it is at present unclear if
this results in differences in physical properties. The sequences of transmembrane domains …

Tissue differentiation is an important process that involves major cellular membrane
remodeling. We used Madin–Darby canine kidney cells as a model for epithelium formation …

The earlier studies aimed at investigating the response of tissue fatty acyl composition to
variation in dietary fat were predominantly concerned with the state of essential fatty acid …

Proton and/or sodium electrochemical gradients are critical to energy handling at the plasma
membranes of all living cells. Sodium gradients are used for animal plasma membranes, all …

Tight junctions in epithelial cells have been postulated to act as barriers inhibiting lateral
diffusion of lipids and proteins between the apical and basolateral plasma membrane …

The influenza virus (IFV) acquires its envelope by budding from host cell plasma
membranes. Using quantitative shotgun mass spectrometry, we determined the lipidomes of …

Eukaryotes are characterized by endomembranes that are connected by vesicular transport
along secretory and endocytic pathways. The compositional differences between the various …

Epithelial cells are organized into sheets that separate compartments of the organism
(Berridge & Oschman 1972). The cells in the epithelium are linked through junctional …
