- Rafts defined: a report on the Keystone symposium on lipid rafts and cell function Published, JLR Papers in Press, April 27, 2006. (2006, background): “It is rare that a meeting is held to discuss an entity that is difficult to visualize, has an ill-defined molecular composition, and whose very existence has been questioned (1).”
- Single-molecule microscopy reveals plasma membrane microdomains created by protein-protein networks that exclude or trap signaling molecules in T cells. (2005, positive): “We also have depleted cholesterol with methyl-β-cyclodextrin (a frequently D used method for disrupting lipid rafts) but found that a preincubation with this drug prevented cell attachment S to anti-TCR-coated surfaces, most likely due to a gene- m ral toxic effect (Munro, 2003).”
- Lipid rafts: contentious only from simplistic standpoints (2006, background): “This assumption has led to an ever-increasing number of proteins being assigned to lipid rafts based solely on their DRM association, and has prompted a series of valid, crucial questions to be asked of the lipid-raft hypothesis 4 , 5 .”
