Abstract

Membranes are not limited to the cell surface; they are present throughout the cell interior, providing the basic structure of organelles. Membranes act as barriers to the free diffusion of various substances, including ions. Antibiotics transport through the membrane and the interactions between antigens and receptors of the immune system are enhanced by simultaneous interactions between lymphocyte-expressed co-receptors and molecules on antigen-presenting cells or on complex antigens. The type of antigens receptor present on B and T cells are a membrane-bound form of the immunoglobulin super-family molecules. I pretend in this work to present this membrane proteins and their function in the cellular body.
