How evolution fine tunes molecular mechanisms to create and maintain membrane diversity between species
The cell membrane is a fundamental biological structure. These lipid layers surround and organize every cell, controlling everything from signaling to transport.

The cell membrane is a fundamental biological structure. These lipid layers surround and organize every cell, controlling everything from signaling to transport. But for membranes to function properly, their physicochemical properties must sit within a narrow range: for instance, not too rigid or too fluid.
