Confocal images of J774A.1 cells treated with ACT at 37°C for 2 minutes revealed more marked co-localization of the toxin with known raft-marker molecules, such as GM1 and the cholera toxin subunit B (CTxB), as well as with the integrin β2, than with a non-raft marker, the transferrin receptor, CD71 (Fig. 1E).
The costs compared well with building (as is common) on a large amount of concrete set in the ground, making what are known as raft foundations.
Several studies indicate that the lipid biological membrane contains discrete regions known as rafts or microdomains.
This might be the case for proteins directed to the apical surface in polarized epithelial cells, the concentration of which at the TGN appear to be through their partition into cholesterol- and sphingolipid-rich membrane domains that are known as "rafts" (Schuck and Simons 2004).

But entomologists say that only fire ants are known to make rafts.
Mr. Barberis said he sees the Boatel as part of a recent movement of artists exploring New York's waterways, like Duke Riley, who staged a naval battle in a reflecting pool in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, and Swoon, the street artist behind the wide-ranging flotilla of paddle- and steam-powered junk rafts known as Swimming Cities.
