Chapter 1) because detergent extraction can cause redistribution of the molecular components and co-aggregation of molecules that are not normally associated with each other in vivo (M. Heffer-Lauc, 2005, 2007). 

Glycosphingolipids are found in all cells of vertebrates. They are generally thought of as components of the plasma membrane, and in particular, subregions of the membrane such as rafts that are often visualized by using antibodies against GMl (M. Heffer-Lauc, 2005,...
