Abstract

We have used spin-labeling to investigate complement-induced changes in lipid organization of antibody-sensitized sheep erythrocyte membranes. The spectrum of methyl 5-doxylstearate incorporated into the lipid component of sheep erythrocyte membranes is typical of a membrane bilayer. The membranes f...
