The membranes of the various intracellular organelles possess unique lipid compositions.
Yet most of the lipids are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). I This implies that
lipids are transported and that specificity exists in the traffic routes to the various organelles:
in other words, lipids are sorted. For various reasons cellular lipid research lags behind that
of the proteins. As a consequence, a large part of the basic characterization
