Membrane Fluidity and Membrane Activities

1985
Observations that changes in membrane fluidity affect a wide variety of membrane and cellular activities 1–5 greatly stimulated interest in the study of membrane fluidity. It also suggested that such effects could be used to monitor such changes. In this chapter I will discuss selected examples of cases in which membrane fluidity seems to affect ...

Effects of trace elements on membrane fluidity

Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, 2005
According to the Fluid Mosaic Model, a biological membrane is a two-dimensional fluid of oriented proteins and lipids. The lipid bilayer is the basic structure of all cell and organelle membranes. Cell membranes are dynamic, fluid structures, and most of their molecules are able to move in the plane of the membrane.

Fluidity of Membrane Lipids

1984
In considering the various fatty acids that occur in living cells, we have questioned whether or not unsaturated fatty acids serve only to establish membrane fluidity. If this were their only role, then the wide variety of acyl structures that occurs in nature seems unnecessary since oleate (cis-9–18: 1) or palmitoleate (cis-9–16:1) appears capable of ...

Regulators of Membrane Fluidity

2020
Caenorhabditis elegans PAQR-2 (a homolog of the mammalian AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 proteins) and IGLR-2 (homolog of the mammalian LRIG proteins) form a complex at the plasma membrane that regulates fatty acid desaturation to protect against saturated fatty acid-induced membrane rigidification.
