The gradual disintegration of the sperm plasma membrane following insemination. This process is seen in Drosophila after entry of the entire sperm, surrounded by its plasma membrane, into the egg. The controlled breakdown of the thylakoid membrane in the context of a normal process. A cellular process that results in the breakdown of a part of the cell. Any process that is carried out at the cellular level, but not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. The controlled breakdown of the membranes of multivesicular bodies. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of membrane disassembly. A process which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a membrane. A membrane is a double layer of lipid molecules that encloses all cells, and, in eukaryotes, many organelles; may be a single or double lipid bilayer; also includes associated proteins. The controlled breakdown of the membranes of autophagic vacuoles. The controlled breakdown of the membranes of cargo-carrying vesicles formed during peroxisome degradation. The controlled breakdown of the nuclear envelope in the context of a normal process. The controlled breakdown of any cell membrane in the context of a normal process such as autophagy. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a membrane. A membrane is a double layer of lipid molecules that encloses all cells, and, in eukaryotes, many organelles; may be a single or double lipid bilayer; also includes associated proteins. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a cellular component.
