Document Summary
A fundamental feature of cells is the use of a barrier to prevent loss of molecules essential to life and to prevent entry of harmful molecules. There is a cell-limiting (demarcating) membrane called the plasma membrane, and there are sometimes intracellular membranes (what groups of organisms do not have internal membranes?). Membranes are composed of proteins and lipids that are often supplemented with carbohydrates. In order to function properly in a specific environment, each membrane is composed of some of each of those three biomolecule groups. An understanding of membrane function is derived from understanding the various roles of lipids and proteins in membrane structure. The entire chapter contains many examples and makes many points related to the purposeful, asymmetric structure of membranes. Understand the three basic structures of lipids in aqueous environments: bilayer, micelle, and liposome. Note that they provide for two different aqueous environments because of their structure.
