Abstract
In this paper, we present different results obtained by the in vivo approach on the intracellular transport of lipids and fatty acids to the plasma membrane of seven-day-old etiolated leek seedlings. The complexity of the processes involved in plasma membrane biogenesis needs further investigations at both the molecular and cellular levels, but, at the cellular level, this complexity probably exceeds the possibilities of the in vivo analysis.Accordingly, a new approach, based on in vitro cell-free systems, which has proved to be suitable for studies on protein transport, was developped recently to study the membrane transfer of lipids. Some preliminary results concerning this new approach are presented and discussed.
