Phase Boundaries and Biological Membranes
Bilayer mixtures of lipids are used by many researchers as chemically simple models for biological membranes. In particular, observations on three-component bilayer mixtures con...
The Fluid Mosaic Model of the Structure of Cell Membranes
A fluid mosaic model is presented for the gross organization and structure of the proteins and lipids of biological membranes. The model is consistent with the restrictions impo...
Ceramide Drives Cholesterol Out of the Ordered Lipid Bilayer Phase into the Crystal Phase in 1-Palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-<i>sn</i>-glycero-3-phosphocholine/Cholesterol/Ceramide Ternary Mixtures
The effect of brain ceramide on the maximum solubility of cholesterol in ternary mixtures of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC), cholesterol, and ceramide w...
Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Membranes Composed of Glycolipids and Phospholipids
Lipid membranes composed of 1,2-di-(9Z,12Z,15Z)-octadecatrienoyl-3-O-β-D-galactosyl-sn-glycerol or monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG) and 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoch...
Wide Varieties of Cationic Nanoparticles Induce Defects in Supported Lipid Bilayers
