Abstract excerpt
SPB-1, a Chinese hamster ovary cell variant defective in serine palmitoyltransferase activity for sphingolipid synthesis, provides a useful system for studying the effects of sphingolipids and/or cholesterol deprivation on cellular functions and membrane properties. To investigate whether there was an interaction among sphingolipids, cholesterol, and glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins in...
