            Course content
        
        
            The discipline "Structure and functions of biological membranes" acquaints students with modern views on the biochemical composition and molecular structure of plasma membrane and membranes of intracellular organelles, with the structure of specific membrane sites - lipid rafts and caveolae, with modern methods of research and their biological biochemical mechanisms by which membranes realize their transport function, as well as the processes underlying free radical damage to biological membranes.
