bad as didn't allow heads to be in contact with water or amino acids on outside to be kept away from water.
research into lipid bilayer formation used to refine model
freeze fracture?
smooth mosaic like surface seen and dispersed is molecules like proteins/lipids.
used molecule lectin labelled with ferritin which is visible under electron microscope, only binds to polysaccharides, lectin only bound to outside of membrane so outside is different from inside
fusing of human/mouse cells?
mouse cell labelled w/ green pigment for protein, humans labelled w red pigment for protein.
2 cells allowed to fuse, immediately after fusing proteins stayed in respective places but after 40 mins 37 degrees. complete mix of protein.
could've only mixed via diffusion through surface so membranes are fluid.
