  • Title: Do 'lipidic particles' represent intermembrane attachment sites?
    Author: Miller RG.
    Journal: Nature; 1980 Sep 11; 287(5778):166-7. PubMed ID: 7432450.
    Abstract:
    Although freeze-fracture electron microscopy is normally analysed with the presumption that particles represent proteins embedded within the membrane, particles which appeared to represent inverted lipid micelles within membranes have been reported. I have now confirmed the occurrence of particles in protein-free liposomes, but have found that they behave like intermembrane attachment sites rather than structures within a membrane.
