Mechanisms of Membrane Remodeling by Peripheral Proteins and Divalent Cations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Biological membranes undergo constant shape remodeling involving the formation of highly curved structures. As one of the most extensively studied membrane remodeling events, endocytosis is a ubiquitous eukaryotic membrane budding, vesiculation, and ...

Protein-lipid interactions in raft-exhibiting membranes probed by combined AFM and FCS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The cellular membrane is a complex biological entity, far from being an inert assembly of protein and lipids which separates cells from the surrounding environment.

Alkyne lipid probes and azide detection reagents for in vitro enzymatic assays and highly sensitive lipid imaging [PDF]

open access: yes
Click chemistry has emerged as a powerful tool for the sensitive and specific labeling of biomolecules in various applications. For the design of lipid probes, a small and non-interfering tag is important to prevent substantial influence on the ...

Elasticity of Compressed Emulsions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The interfaces of bubbles and droplets imbue foams and emulsions with extraordinary mechanical and chemical properties. The remarkably large interfacial area of these structures controls their thermodynamics and makes them practical and functional ...
