Covalent functionalisation with alkyl tails is a common method for supporting molecular
catalysts and photosensitisers onto lipid bilayers, but the influence of the alkyl chain length …

Membrane budding and fission are essential cellular processes that produce new
membrane compartments during cell and organelle division, for intracellular vesicle …

Abstract Supported Lipid Bilayers (SLBs) are versatile models capable of mimicking some of
the key properties of the cell membrane, including for example lipid fluidity, domain …

We review the principles and applications of statistical filtering in multichannel fluorescence
microscopy. This alternative approach to separation of signals from individual fluorophore …

Incorporation of low molecular weight poly-ethylene glycol (PEG)-grafted phospholipids in
vesicle bilayers is known to increase the circulation time of liposomal drug delivery vehicles …

Microcavity-supported lipid bilayers (MSLBs) are contact-free membranes suspended
across aqueous-filled pores that maintain the lipid bilayer in a highly fluidic state, free from …

Many drugs have intracellular or membrane-associated targets, thus understanding their
interaction with the cell membrane is of value in drug development. Cell-free tools used to …

Lipid bilayer is the main constitutive element of biological membrane, which confines
intracellular space. The mechanical properties of biological membranes may be …

A key prerequisite in an ideal supported lipid bilayer based cell membrane model is that the
mobility of both the lipid matrix and its components are unhindered by the underlying …

Platelet integrin αIIbβ3 is a key mediator of platelet activation and thrombosis. Upon
activation αIIbβ3 undergoes significant conformational rearrangement, inducing complex …
