[Image: see text] Mechanistic studies have shown that aggregates of a common membrane disrupting molecule, Triton X-100, destroy the integrity of cholesterol-rich phospholipid bilayers via a catastrophic rupture process. In sharp contrast, attack on such membranes by monomers of Triton X-100 destroy...
