Electron spin resonance studies of erythrocyte membranes from patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy exhibit changes in the physical state of lipids and proteins in membranes when compared to membranes from normal subjects. The results suggest that the alterations in membrane lipid-protein organization are present in this disease.
