Overview
Completely revised and updated to reflect advances in the study of biological membranes, this third edition provides an integrated view of membrane structure and function. Introductory chapters focus on the fundamentals of lipid bilayers and membrane proteins for those new to the field. The second part of the book presents in-depth analyses of current topics, including the phase behavior of lipid bilayers; cholesterol's role in cell biology; the lateral organization of membranes; the role of lipids in membrane protein folding; membrane protein synthesis, stability, and transport; and interactions between proteins and lipids. It offers a valuable resource for researchers and students alike.
