The reaction of trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid with phosphatidylethanolamine in the cytoplasmic membrane of Alteromonas espejiana suggests that 50% of this lipid occupies the outer lamella. In PM2, similar analysis suggests that 56% of this lipid populates the outer lamella of the membrane, the surface of which accounts for 60% of the membrane area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
