We are taught that plasma membranes are a typical lipid bilayer, but how do we know this, and who figured it out? Aa Aa Aa Most books mention that membranes have a typical "lipid bilayer," but why ...

A problem with complex mixtures Immediately, we run into a problem: biological membranes contain hundreds of chemically distinct lipid components that form the actual bilayer membrane. The most ...

A series of pioneering experiments in 1925 indicated that this barrier membrane consisted of two molecular layers of lipids—a lipid bilayer. New tools over the next few decades confirmed this theory, ...

Insane (INSert membrANE) is a versatile tool to build coarse-grained simulation systems containing solutes, lipid bilayers, and/or solvents. It is initially aimed at the Martini force field but can be ...

In our simulations, far from the proteins the membrane adopts an equilibrium thickness of ~35 Å consistent with experiments suggesting phosphatidylcholine (PC):phosphatidylglycerol (PG):cholesterol ...

These lipids, known as phospholipids, are arranged in a bilayer of membranes, regulating entry and exit of certain molecules ...

Their findings, published in Nature Communications, reveal an unexpected "in-plane staging" mechanism that occurs when ...

Mitochondrial membrane dynamics is a cellular rheostat that relates metabolic function and organelle morphology. Using an in vitro reconstitution system, we describe a mechanism for how mitochondrial ...
