Lipid rafts and Alzheimer’s disease: protein-lipid interactions and perturbation of signalling
Lipid rafts are membrane domains, more ordered than the bulk membrane and enriched in cholesterol and sphingolipids. They represent a platform for protein-lipid and protein-protein interactions and for cellular signalling events. In addition to their normal functions, including membrane trafficking,...
