Melittin interaction with sulfated sugars and cell membranes [PDF]
The presented work focused on an alternative mechanism of action of melittin on the cell membranes. The study using ITC reveals that melittin has a high affinity for several glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), i.e.

Imaging lipid domains in cell membranes: the advent of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy
The lipid bilayer of model membranes, liposomes reconstituted from cell lipids, and plasma membrane vesicles and spheres can separate into two distinct liquid phases to yield lipid domains with liquid-ordered and liquid-disordered properties.

Spiroplasma membrane lipids [PDF]
Membranes of six spiroplasma strains belonging to different Spiroplasma species and subgroups were isolated by a combination of osmotic lysis and sonication in the presence of EDTA to block endogenous phospholipase activity. Analysis of membrane lipids showed that in addition to free and esterified cholesterol the spiroplasmas incorporated exogenous ...
