Contribution of plasma membrane lipid domains to red blood cell (re)shaping

Abstract Although lipid domains have been evidenced in several living cell plasma membranes, their roles remain largely unclear. We here investigated whether they could contribute to function-associated cell (re)shaping. To address this question, we used erythrocytes as cellular model since they (i)...
