Functional Importance

Specialized regions of plasma membranes displaying lateral heterogeneity are the focus of this Symposium. Specialized membrane domains are known for certain cell types such as differentiated epithelial cells where lateral heterogeneity in lipids and proteins exists between the apical and basolateral portions of the plasma membrane. Lateral heterogeneity and the presence of microdomains in membranes that are uniform in appearance have been more difficult to establish. Nonetheless a number of studies have provided evidence for membrane microdomains and indicated a functional importance for these structures.This symposium will focus on the use of various imaging modalities and related approaches to define membrane microdomains in a number of cell types. The importance of existing as well as emerging imaging technologies for use in the elucidation of membrane microdomains will be highlighted. The organization of membrane microdomains in terms of dimensions and spatial distribution is of considerable interest and will be addressed in this Symposium.

Abstract Through the studies on structure-activity relationships of 5-acyl-3-(1-aminoalkylidene)-4-hydroxy-2 H-pyran-2,6(3 H)-dione derivatives in photosystem II (PS II) inhibition, overall lipophilicity of the molecule was found to be a major determinant for the activity. In the substituted N -benzyl derivatives, not only the lipophilicity but also the electronic and steric characters of the substituents greatly affected the activity. Their mode of PS II inhibition seemed to be similar to that of DCMU , whereas pyran-enamine derivatives needed to be highly lipophilic to block the electron transport in thylakoid membranes, which in turn diminished the permeability through biomembranes.
