Phospholipids: The Unsung Heroes of Cell Membranes

Phospholipids are essential lipid molecules crucial for the structural integrity of cell membranes. Each consists of a glycerol backbone linked to two fatty acid tails and a phosphate group, giving rise to hydrophilic “heads” and hydrophobic “tails.” This structure enables the formation of bilayers, contributing to membrane fluidity, cell signaling, and selective permeability, vital for maintaining homeostasis.
