This project investigates lipid asymmetry in cell membranes, proposing it as a source of potential energy for membrane dynamics and signaling. By developing new methods to measure lipid movement, the research aims to enhance understanding of cellular processes and membrane behavior.
It is a basic textbook notion that the plasma membranes of virtually all organisms display an asymmetric lipid distribution between inner and outer leaflets far removed from thermodynamic equilibrium.
As a fundamental biological principle, lipid asymmetry has been linked to numerous cellular processes.
However, a clear mechanistic justification for the continued existence of lipid asymmetry throughout evolution has yet to be established.
We propose here that lipid asymmetry serves as a store of…
