Mainarticle:HistoryofcellmembranetheoryWhileRobertHooke’sdiscoveryofcellsin1665ledtotheproposaloftheCellTheory,Hookemisledthecellmembranetheorythatallcellscontainedahardcellwallsinceonlyplantcellscouldbeobservedatthetime.[9]Microscopistsfocusedonthecellwallforwellover150yearsuntiladvancesinmicroscopyweremade.Intheearly19thcentury,cellswererecognizedasbeingseparateentities,unconnected,andboundbyindividualcellwallsafteritwasfoundthatplantcellscouldbeseparated.Thistheoryextendedtoincludeanimalcellstosuggestauniversalmechanismforcellprotectionanddevelopment.Bythesecondhalfofthe19thcentury,microscopywasstillnotadvancedenoughtomakeadistinctionbetweencellmembranesandcellwalls.However,somemicroscopistscorrectlyidentifiedatthistimethatwhileinvisible,itcouldbeinferredthatcellmembranesexistedinanimalcellsduetointracellularmovementofcomponentsinternallybutnotexternallyandthatmembraneswerenottheequivalentofacellwalltoplantcell.Itwasalsoinferredthatcellmembraneswerenotvitalcomponentstoallcells.Manyrefutedtheexistenceofacellmembranestilltowardstheendofthe19thcentury.In1890,anupdatetotheCellTheorystatedthatcellmembranesexisted,butweremerelysecondarystructures.Itwasnotuntillaterstudieswithosmosisandpermeabilitythatcellmembranesgainedmorerecognition.[9]In1895,ErnestOvertonproposedthatcellmembranesweremadeoflipids.[10] Thelipidbilayerhypothesis,proposedin1925byGorterandGrendel,[11]createdspeculationtothedescriptionofthecellmembranebilayerstructurebasedoncrystallographicstudiesandsoapbubbleobservations.Inanattempttoacceptorrejectthehypothesis,researchersmeasuredmembranethickness.[9]In1925itwasdeterminedbyFrickethatthethicknessoferythrocyteandyeastcellmembranesrangedbetween3.3and4

nm,withthelowermeasurementssupportingthelipidbilayerhypothesis.Laterinthe1930s,themembranestructuremodeldevelopedingeneralagreementtobethepaucimolecularmodelofDavsonandDanielli(1935).Thismodelwasbasedonstudiesofsurfacetensionbetweenoilsandechinodermeggs.Sincethesurfacetensionvaluesappearedtobemuchlowerthanwouldbeexpectedforanoil–waterinterface,itwasassumedthatsomesubstancewasresponsibleforloweringtheinterfacialtensionsinthesurfaceofcells.Itwassuggestedthatalipidbilayerwasinbetweentwothinproteinlayers.Thepaucimolecularmodelimmediatelybecamepopularanditdominatedcellmembranestudiesforthefollowing30years,untilitbecamerivaledbythefluidmosaicmodelofSingerandNicolson(1972).[12][9] Despitethenumerousmodelsofthecellmembraneproposedpriortothefluidmosaicmodel,itremainstheprimaryarchetypeforthecellmembranelongafteritsinceptioninthe1970s.[9]Althoughthefluidmosaicmodelhasbeenmodernizedtodetailcontemporarydiscoveries,thebasicshaveremainedconstant:themembraneisalipidbilayercomposedofhydrophilicexteriorheadsandahydrophobicinteriorwhereproteinscaninteractwithhydrophilicheadsthroughpolarinteractions,butproteinsthatspanthebilayerfullyorpartiallyhavehydrophobicaminoacidsthatinteractwiththenon-polarlipidinterior.Thefluidmosaicmodelnotonlyprovidedanaccuraterepresentationofmembranemechanics,itenhancedthestudyofhydrophobicforces,whichwouldlaterdevelopintoanessentialdescriptivelimitationtodescribebiologicalmacromolecules.[9] Formanycenturies,thescientistsciteddisagreedwiththesignificanceofthestructuretheywereseeingasthecellmembrane.Foralmosttwocenturies,themembraneswereseenbutmostlydisregardedthisasanimportantstructurewithcellularfunction.Itwasnotuntilthe20thcenturythatthesignificanceofthecellmembraneasitwasacknowledged.Finally,twoscientistsGorterandGrendel(1925)madethediscoverythatthemembraneis“lipid-based”.Fromthis,theyfurtheredtheideathatthisstructurewouldhavetobeinaformationthatmimickedlayers.Oncestudiedfurther,itwasfoundbycomparingthesumofthecellsurfacesandthesurfacesofthelipids,a2:1ratiowasestimated;thus,providingthefirstbasisofthebilayerstructureknowntoday.Thisdiscoveryinitiatedmanynewstudiesthatarosegloballywithinvariousfieldsofscientificstudies,confirmingthatthestructureandfunctionsofthecellmembranearewidelyaccepted.[9]

Composition Cellmembranescontainavarietyofbiologicalmolecules,notablylipidsandproteins.Compositionisnotset,butconstantlychangingforfluidityandchangesintheenvironment,evenfluctuatingduringdifferentstagesofcelldevelopment.Specifically,theamountofcholesterolinhumanprimaryneuroncellmembranechanges,andthischangeincompositionaffectsfluiditythroughoutdevelopmentstages.[21] Materialisincorporatedintothemembrane,ordeletedfromit,byavarietyofmechanisms: Fusionofintracellularvesicleswiththemembrane(exocytosis)notonlyexcretesthecontentsofthevesiclebutalsoincorporatesthevesiclemembrane'scomponentsintothecellmembrane.Themembranemayformblebsaroundextracellularmaterialthatpinchofftobecomevesicles(endocytosis).

Lipids Examplesofthemajormembranephospholipidsandglycolipids:phosphatidylcholine(PtdCho),phosphatidylethanolamine(PtdEtn),phosphatidylinositol(PtdIns),phosphatidylserine(PtdSer).Thecellmembraneconsistsofthreeclassesofamphipathiclipids:phospholipids,glycolipids,andsterols.Theamountofeachdependsuponthetypeofcell,butinthemajorityofcasesphospholipidsarethemostabundant,oftencontributingforover50%ofalllipidsinplasmamembranes.[22][23]Glycolipidsonlyaccountforaminuteamountofabout2%andsterolsmakeuptherest.InRBCstudies,30%oftheplasmamembraneislipid.However,forthemajorityofeukaryoticcells,thecompositionofplasmamembranesisabouthalflipidsandhalfproteinsbyweight. Thefattychainsinphospholipidsandglycolipidsusuallycontainanevennumberofcarbonatoms,typicallybetween16and20.The16-and18-carbonfattyacidsarethemostcommon.Fattyacidsmaybesaturatedorunsaturated,withtheconfigurationofthedoublebondsnearlyalways"cis".Thelengthandthedegreeofunsaturationoffattyacidchainshaveaprofoundeffectonmembranefluidityasunsaturatedlipidscreateakink,preventingthefattyacidsfrompackingtogetherastightly,thusdecreasingthemeltingtemperature(increasingthefluidity)ofthemembrane.[22][23]Theabilityofsomeorganismstoregulatethefluidityoftheircellmembranesbyalteringlipidcompositioniscalledhomeoviscousadaptation.
