[sci.research] lipid ref. request

steve@uw-nsr.UUCP (03/16/87)

I am looking for a reference to the packing density for phospholipids and
fatty acids in membranes. I.e., the number of molecules per surface area. 
I am primarily interested in cardiac sarcolemma and capillary endothelial
cell membranes, but any references would be useful. 
Also, if anybody knows of a more recent reference than Langmuir, 1938 for
whole ares of a membrane flipping I would appreciate knowing about it. 
This wholesale flipping would also seem to address sidedness issues so that
any mention of protein or phospholipid sidedness changes would also come
under this request. 
If you know of any references to these issues could you please Email them 
to me. Thank you in advance. Steve
