About this model
Every cell is wrapped in a skin only two molecules thick. This cell membrane 3d model enlarges a cut block of it after the fluid mosaic model. Red hydrophilic heads cover both outer faces and yellow hydrophobic tails fill the middle, two per lipid, one with the cis kink that keeps the membrane fluid. On all four cut sides the lipids stand in clean profile, while the top is a carpet of head balls. Embedded are a light blue channel protein of six subunits around an open pore, two mint glycoproteins with branched chains of lavender and pink sugar beads and one glycolipid. The block rests on a lilac board, 21 by 15 cm and 13 cm high, with 38,844 triangles. Human Cell and Plant Cell show whole cells, this model zooms into their boundary.

Engine import notes
Unity GLB · FBX
Import the GLB with the glTFast package or use the FBX. 1 m in the file = 1 Unity unit.
Unreal Engine FBX
Use the FBX. The model is built in metres. Unreal works in centimetres and converts on import, so it arrives at real size (0.13 m = 13 cm).
Godot 4 GLB · FBX
Drag the GLB into the FileSystem dock. Godot 4 imports it directly, with materials. The FBX works too (Godot 4.3+ imports it natively).
Blender BLEND · GLB
Open the .blend directly, or import the GLB via File › Import › glTF 2.0.
