Different types of Lipids present in Plasma membrane
Lipids shows very wide diversity in their structure and their biological functions. They perform a very important role in membrane bilayer permeability as barrier to cells and organelles. There are three types of lipid present in Plasma membranes. These are 1) Phospholipids, 2) Glycolipids, and 3) Sterol. 1] Phospholipids have a polar head group containing a phosphate group […]
