Membrane proteins play a most important part in metabolism, signaling, cell motility,
transport, development, and many other biochemical and biophysical processes which …

Cellular membranes are complex structures and simplified analogues in the form of model
membranes or biomembranes are used as platforms to understand fundamental properties …

This review addresses the advances made with specular neutron reflectometry in studies of
aqueous mixtures of polymers and surfactants at fluid interfaces during the last decade (or …

We describe a new methodology to prepare loaded polyelectrolyte/surfactant films at the
air/water interface by exploiting Marangoni spreading resulting from the dynamic …

Lipid bilayers immobilized in planar geometries, such as solid-supported or “floating”
bilayers, have enabled detailed studies of biological membranes with numerous …

Styrene-alt-maleic acid lipid particles (SMALPs) are self-assembled discoidal structures
composed of a polymer belt and a segment of lipid bilayer, which are capable of …

Nanodiscs are self-assembled∼ 50-nm 2 patches of lipid bilayers stabilized by amphipathic
belt proteins. We demonstrate that a well ordered dense film of nanodiscs serves for non …

Hypothesis The attractive interaction between a cationic surfactant monolayer at the air–
water interface and vesicles, incorporating anionic lipids, is sufficient to drive the adsorption …

High and low density lipoproteins (HDL and LDL) are thought to play vital roles in the onset
and development of atherosclerosis; the biggest killer in the western world. Key issues of …

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is a major component of eukaryotic cell membranes and one of
the most commonly used phospholipids for reconstitution of membrane proteins into carrier …
