Scope note: Lípidos, predominantemente fosfolípidos, colesterol y pequeñas cantidades de glicolípidos que se encuentran en las membranas celulares e intracelulares. Estos lípidos pueden estar dispuestos en bicapas en las membranas con proteínas integrales entre las capas y las proteínas periféricas insertadas en el exterior. Se requieren los lípidos de membranas para el trasnporte activo, varias actividades enzimáticas y formación de membranas.

Scope note: Lipids, predominantly phospholipids, cholesterol and small amounts of glycolipids found in membranes including cellular and intracellular membranes. These lipids may be arranged in bilayers in the membranes with integral proteins between the layers and peripheral proteins attached to the outside. Membrane lipids are required for active transport, several enzymatic activities and membrane formation.
