This commentary presents evidence in support of a hypothesis that adult mammalian alveolar epithelial basement membrane possesses functional and structural domains that determine sites at which type I and type II cells localize. The hypothesis provides a framework for understanding how, after normal repair of the epithelium, a constant ratio of type I and type II cells, and the localization of the cell types is maintained.
