News Releases. Schizophreniaâs strongest known genetic risk deconstructed. Suspect gene may trigger runaway synaptic pruning during adolescence â NIH-funded study. Versions of a gene linked to schizophrenia may trigger runaway pruning of the teenage brainâs still-maturing communications infrastructure, NIH-funded researchers have discovered.

The cytoplasmic membrane (also called the plasma or cell membrane) in eukaryotic cells, as in prokaryotes, is a fluid phospholipid bilayer embedded with proteins and glycoproteins.2, Fig. 32A, and Fig. 31).

Eukaryotic cells are typically much larger than those of prokaryotes. They have a variety of internal membrane-bound structures, called organelles, and a cytoskeleton composed of microtubules, microfilaments, and intermediate filaments, which play an important role in defining the cell's organization and shape.ukaryote cells include a variety of membrane-bound structures, collectively referred to as the endomembrane system. Simple compartments, called vesicles or vacuoles, can form by budding off other membranes.
