After an introductory review of the physics of lipid-bilayer selfassembly, we discuss the origins of the area-difference elasticity model, a Landau-like theory which describes the mesoscale shape mechanics of bilayer sheets and vesicles. We introduce the notion of a phase diagram for mechanically st

## Abstract Treatment of isolated human erythrocyte membranes with Triton X‐100 at ionic strength ⋍0.04 preferentially released all the glycerolipid and glycoprotein species. At low ionic strength, certain nonglycosylated polypeptides were also selectively solubilized. The liberated polypeptides we

Membrane phospholipid asymmetry is considered to be a general property of biological membranes. Detailed information is presently available on the non-random orientation of phospholipids in red cell- and platelet membranes. The outer leaflet of the lipid bilayer membrane is rich in choline-phospholi

Reversible aggregation of erythrocytes was investigated after alteration of the phospholipid content in the membrane outer leaflet either by disturbance of endogenous transmembrane lipid asymmetry through changes in cellular free calcium, or by incorporation of exogenous lyso-derivatives. It was fou

Red blood cell count and haemoglobin content for blood of normal adult salamanders, Taricha granulosa, are presented. The RBC count is some 4 x lV/mm3 blood and the haemoglobin level some 4.5 gm/lOO ml blood. Some evidence suggesting transient changes in these levels for a brief period immediately f
