| Abstract: |
Chapter 3 describes the evolution of the main hypothetical models for biological membranes’ structure, which were based on the interpretation of research results (evidence-based approach), from 1925 to the present day. Limitations and the main questions that have not yet been fully understood are discussed. Next, the main features of biological membranes structure, fluidity and asymmetry are presented. The information stated in chapters 1,2,3 is exploited to understand how individual components interact, get organized and form supramolecular assemblies, to move into the relationship between structure and function of biological membranes.
