Certain plasma membrane structures, such as clathrin-coated pits and caveolae, have been recognized for decades. More recently, scientists have identified other less-visible domains within the lipid bilayer, collectively termed lipid rafts. With new imaging techniques and new findings, membrane domain research has proceeded at a rate more befitting a rocket than a raft.
