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 ...

Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent regulated cell death process driven by excessive lipid peroxides and membrane injury, can enhance cancer vulnerability to chemotherapy. Lipid peroxidation of unsaturated ...

Researchers study how DNA nanopores (DNPs) interact with low-curvature supported lipid bilayers over time. Using QCM-D, the study tracks diffusion, aggregation, and incorporation of DNPs, highlighting ...

A study team (Professor Ryugo Tero et al.) from the Department of Applied Chemistry and Life Science at the Toyohashi University of Technology found a phenomenon in which particular lipids were ...

In silico antibody accessibility analysis indicates that ectodomain epitopes are transiently exposed, while MPER epitopes are virtually always occluded in the pre-fusion trimer.

Nanoparticles have once again reached the spotlight, this time as a critical tool to combat the spread of covid-19. In this particular case, messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) encapsulated in lipid ...
