👉 Microconstituent is a group of molecules or compounds that are present in small quantities within a larger molecule, such as a cell membrane. These molecules play a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis and regulating cellular functions by interacting with other molecules and proteins at the molecular level. For example, the microconstituent of the cell membrane includes lipids like cholesterol and phospholipids that act as carriers for substances like glucose, which are essential for energy production.
