Abstract
Publisher Summary Molecular biology of cellular membranes with applications to immunology is to discuss the molecular structure of membranes and its bearing on membrane functions, as these concepts are currently emerging. This chapter discusses the molecular structure of membranes and its bearing on membrane functions, as these concepts are currently emerging. This chapter presents a detailed analysis of the thermodynamics of membrane systems and of new experimental information that proposes the fluid mosaic model of membrune structure. This chapter applies the fluid mosaic model, and the facts and speculations about membrane redistribution effects to some problems of interest in immunology. Finally, it should also have become evident that there are many fundamental aspects of membrane molecular biology, about which entirely too little is known at present, and that further developments in this very active area should be of great and continued interest to immunologists.
