- Title
Lipid rafts and membrane traffic
- Authors
Hanzal-Bayer, Michael F.; Hancock, John F.
- Abstract
Abstract: Membrane rafts are regions of increased lipid acyl chain order that differ in their lipid and protein composition from the surrounding membrane. By providing an additional level of compartmentalization they have been proposed to serve many functions in cellular signal transduction and trafficking. We will review their potential involvement in different forms of membrane traffic, explicitly excluding signalling, and discuss select aspects of the raft hypothesis in its current form.
