Edited version of Image:CellMembraneDrawing.jpg, with numbers instead of text.

Original description:

Schematic three dimensional cross section of a cell membrane. There are two major components of this dynamic, fluid, structure: lipids and proteins. A lipid bilayer provides the basic structure within which proteins are free to diffuse. Sugar moieties can be present as part of either proteins (glycoproteins) or lipids (glycolipids). A further important component shown is cholesterol; which intercalates between lipid molecules and affects membrane fluidity/stability.

Essential Biological Functions:

• Immune response
• Cell metabolism
• Neurotransmission
• Photosynthesis
• Cell adherence
• Cell growth and differentiation

Potential Commercial Applications

• Drug response monitoring
• Chemical manufacturing
• Biosensing
• Energy conversion
• Tissue engineering
