title: [Comparative morphofunctional description of planar rafts and caveolae].
abstract: Recently, redefining of the role of the membrane lipids and the formation of a new look at the morphology, organization and functioning of membranes occurred due to the study of specific membrane clusters--rafts. The present review summarizes the current data concerning the morphology, the biophysical and biochemical properties of rafts, describes the structure, form and basic functional microdomains marking proteins.
