The proposed mechanism of antioxidant defence system of cubic membranes in oxidative stress conditions. The high content of plasmalogens in cubic membranes may preferentially interact with superoxide anions protecting the biomolecules in cubic membrane channels. This may provide a safe environment for RNA and other protein synthesis machinery molecules (e.g. ribosomal RNA) within the internal compartments of the cubic membranes.
