Even now, when membrane proteins are properly receiving so much attention, this emphasis on membrane lipids is appropriate. Essentially all of the phospholipids and sterols of cells are in membranes. Moreover, although membrane proteins are certainly of utmost importance, the more we learn about the functional properties of membrane proteins, the more we appreciate the unique features of phospholipids, without which biological membranes would be impossible. The hydrophobic-hydrophilic duality of phospholipids allows, indeed requires, their association, in an aqueous environment, into an essentially two-dimensional membrane-only molec ularly thick in one dimension but relatively infinite in the other two; a structure composed of small molecules, not covalently linked, and therefore, infinitely mobile and variable, but yet a structure with great stability and one largely impermeable to most biomolecules. These membrane-forming properties are shared by many amphipathic polar lipids-phospholipids, glycolipids, and sphingolipids- | | 出版日期 | Book 1977 | | 关键词 | biology; biomolecules; membrane; membrane biology; protein; proteins | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4684-2910-7 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4684-2912-1 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4684-2910-7 | | copyright | Plenum Press, New York 1977 |
