This relationship is underlined by the fact that for a given membrane the composition is normally very constant and specific (1). Earlier investigations have exhibited that tumourisation involed alteration in the properties of membrane between normal and crown gall tumour cells and that relatively ...
Dehydration did not result in any substantial change in the unsaturation level of the individual lipid classes, however. The results show that dryland conditions resulted in a marked alteration in the lipid composition of the sunflower leaf plasma membrane View Full Article (HTML) Enhanced Article ...

Alteration of plasma membrane lipids in aluminum-resistant and aluminum-sensitive wheat genotypes in response to aluminum stress We have studied the effect of aluminum (A1) on lipid composition of plasma membranes from roots of an A1-resistant (PT741) and an A1-sensitive (Katepwa) cu... G Zha...
Membrane domains are conserved throughout the domains of life, which supports their functional importance in biological systems. Abstract Cellular plasma membranes are laterally heterogeneous, featuring a variety of distinct subcompartments that differ in their biophysical properties and composition. A large...
The cholesterol content between the plasma membrane and disk membrane is also significantly different, with the plasma membrane containing a relatively high cholesterol to phospholipid ratio of 0.4 compared to disk membranes with a ratio of 0.11 (75). The differences in lipid composition between the ...
The effect of LM fibroblast plasma membrane phospholipid composition on the selectivity of charged amphipathic anesthetics for exofacial or cytofacial leaflets was examined. Because preference of charged amphipaths for one of the plasma membrane bilayer leaflets may be conferred by net changes in the po...
Cancer cell possesses numerous adaptations to resist the immune system response and chemotherapy. One of the most significant properties of the neoplastic cells is the altered lipid metabolism, and consequently, the abnormal cell membrane composition. Like in the case of phosphatidylcholine, these changes...
The Impact of Plasma Membrane Lipid Composition on Flagellum-Mediated Adhesion of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Bacterial adhesion is a crucial step to allow bacteria to colonize their hosts, invade tissues, and form biofilm. Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H... H Cazzola,L Lemaire,S ...
Two main models for EV shedding, respectively based on calcium rise and oxidative stress, have been proposed in the literature but the role of the plasma membrane lipid composition and properties is not understood. Using blood in EDTA/K+ tubes stored for up to 4 weeks at 4°C as a ...
