Hydrocarbon chains of phospholipid membranes eukaryotes branching?

[510586]

Hi everyone. So in feralis notes, it states, "Plasma-membrane of prokaryotes (unbranched ester-linked-bacteria or ether-linked-archaea) while eukaryotes are branched ester-linked phospholipid." But in cliffs, it says that the hydrocarbon of eukaryotes are straight esters as well. Can someone cpear this up for me please?

Good catch. Eukaryotes and prokaryotes are unbranched, some archaea are branched. I'll fix that for the future version of the notes.

EDIT: On second thought it appears that may be an outdated version of the notes, I can't find that line in the most recent one.

Alright cool thanks. I believe this is v2 or something. Did you release v3?
