Controlled deposition of lipid monolayers and bilayers onto mica and direct force measurements between galactolipid bilayers in aqueous-solutions.
Secondly, the eggs are larger and differ in their relative proportions of proteins and lipids.
The decline in axis viability below the critical water content was correlated with sharp increases in lipid peroxidation and cellular leakage.
Above a threshold concentration, the peptide disrupts the lipid packing, which leads to the internalization of the peptide.
Although hopanoid biosynthesis does not require oxygen, these lipids have never been isolated from strictly anaerobic bacteria.
In oligodendrocytes, recent studies provided evidence of a complex apparatus of molecules, which might coordinate trafficking of proteins and lipids.
Local dynamics of lipid bilayers studied by incoherent quasi-elastic neutron-scattering.
These nascent yolk precursors could become fused with each other to form a membrane-limited yolk platelet, which always enclosed lipid droplets.
