Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 98:2001;10642-10647. Many features of membrane microdomains in cells were demonstrated to occur in model membranes, opening the way to more detailed biophysical studies. These included effects of cholesterol depletion and the enhanced recruitment of some lipids to rafts upon crosslinking.

This paper provides a fairly detailed examination of the phase behavior of this three-component system. There are some intriguing similarities to observations in cells [13•] .

The behavior of fluorescent lipid probes with preferences for ordered or disordered domains is examined. Effects of cholesterol depletion differ from expectations of a conventional raft model, but are strikingly similar to observations in a three-component model system [11•] .

Additional lipid probes were included and enabled investigation in the millisecond time range, which showed at least two types of transient confinement.

As neutrophils polarize, they form a large, detergent-resistant domain at the rear that coincides with the distribution of raft-preferring transmembrane domains.

Loss of caveolae, vascular dysfunction, and pulmonary defects in caveolin-1 gene-disrupted mice. Science. 293:2001;2449-2452. The precise role of caveolae has been a subject of much investigation and controversy. Caveolin-1 knockout mice, which also show a lack of caveolin-2, will be an invaluable resource for determining the role of caveolae in various tissues.

Mol Biol Cell. 13:2002;238-250. This careful study shows that under normal cell-culture conditions, plasma membrane caveolae are not significantly involved in endocytosis in HeLa, A-431 or MDCK cells.

SV40 virus interacts with caveolae on the surface and is internalized into caveolin-associated vesicles. The pinching off of the caveolae is apparently induced by the virions.
