the proposal that the two leaflets of a membrane respond differently to added molecules, so asymmetric expansion changes cell shape.

In membrane biophysics, bilayer couple hypothesis refers to the proposal that the two leaflets of a membrane respond differently to added molecules, so asymmetric expansion changes cell shape. This meaning comes from Sheetz (1974) in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.[1]
