摘要
The lipid composition of cellular membranes may seem unnecessarily complex. However, the lipid composition of each membrane is carefully regulated by local metabolism and specificity in transport, marking the functional significance for the cell. Recent research has revealed unexpected discoveries concerning the topology of lipid synthesis, specificity in lipid transport, and the function of lipid and protein microdomains in sorting.
