Abstract
Giant Plasma Membrane Vesicles (GPMVs) are a widely used model system for biochemical and biophysical analysis of the isolated mammalian plasma membrane (PM). A core advantage of these vesicles is that they maintain the native lipid and protein diversity of the plasma membrane while affording the experimental flexibility of synthetic giant vesicles. In addition to fundamental investigations of PM structure and composition, GPMVs have been used to evaluate the binding of proteins and small molecules to cell-derived membranes, and the permeation of drug-like molecules through them.
