Phospholipids are a
class of
lipids whose molecule has a
hydrophilic "head"
containing a
phosphate group and two
hydrophobic "tails"
derived from fatty...
- The
lipid bilayer (or
phospholipid bilayer) is a thin
polar membrane made of two
layers of
lipid molecules.
These membranes form a
continuous barrier around...

translocation of
phospholipids between the two
monolayers of a
lipid bilayer of a cell membrane. In humans,
phospholipid scramblases (PLSCRs) constitute...

Biological membranes, in the form of
eukaryotic cell membranes,
consist of a
phospholipid bilayer with embedded,
integral and
peripheral proteins used in communication...

react against proteins that bind to
anionic phospholipids on
plasma membranes.
Anticardiolipin antibodies, β2glycoprotein 1, and...

phospholipid molecule is amphipathic; it
contains a
hydrophilic polar head and a
hydrophobic nonpolar tail. The
phospholipid heads...

Phospholipid transfer protein is a
