  • Title: Picket and other fences in biological membranes.
    Author: Boiko T, Winckler B.
    Journal: Dev Cell; 2003 Aug; 5(2):191-2. PubMed ID: 12919670.
    Abstract:
    Nakada et al. revisit the controversial question of whether membrane lipids are able to diffuse from the axon of a neuron into the soma. Using single molecule imaging of a fluorescent phospholipid, the authors show that a diffusion barrier in the axon initial segment blocks the diffusion of lipids.
