Lipids (from the Greek, meaning “fat”) comprise a heterogeneous group of organic compounds, insoluble (or sparingly soluble) in water, but soluble in nonpolar solvents such as chloroform, ether, and benzene. Lipids differ in their structure, but all have pronounced nonpolar groups, or both nonpolar and polar groups.

Globin Interactions with Lipids and Membranes
2008Many bacterial globins have been demonstrated to interact with membrane lipids, and several hypotheses in support of a functional role for membrane localization have been set forth. Bacterial globins have been suggested to facilitate oxygen diffusion to terminal oxidases, to protect oxidases from nitric oxide or eventually to preserve the integrity of ...

Membranes are organized assemblies composed mainly of lipids and proteins. They are highly selective barriers, contain pumps and gates, and are involved in the two most important energy conversion processes, photosynthesis and oxidative phosphorylation. In photosynthesis, light is transformed into chemical energy.

Progress in Colloid & Polymer Science, 1997
We studied rupture of planar lipid membranes. We applied short electric field pulses across planar lipid membranes. One pulse charges the membrane and give rise to electric forces. Above a critical threshold voltage rupture of the membrane is induced and a fast discharge of the membrane across the defect is observed.

Regulation of ion channels by membrane lipids.
Comprehensive Physiology, 2012The major membrane lipid regulators of ion channel function include cholesterol, one of the main lipid components of the plasma membranes, phosphoinositides, a group of regulatory phospholipids that constitute a minor component of the membrane lipids but

NMR of carbohydrates, lipids and membranes
2000As with previous reviews in this series (the last being ref. 1), the present article covers a lot of ground, any one aspect of which can be given a small amount of space, but I hope the reader will find, as I do, that the subjects covered are best dealt with as a whole as the topics cross so many re...

The interaction of lipid modified pseudopeptides with lipid membranes
Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry, 2011We have studied the structure of two lipopeptides based on the simple dipeptide building block L-Phe-D-Oxd. These peptides have been reported previously to form fiber-like materials. The lipopeptides synthesized here had the structures C(n)(2)H((2n+1))CO-L-Phe-D-Oxd-OBn or C(n)(2)H((2n+1))CO-D-Phe-L-Oxd-OBn with n = 5 or 11.

Membranes consist of an assembly of a wide variety of lipids [1], proteins and carbohydrates that self-organize to assume a host of biological functions in the cell machinery, like the passive and active transport of matter, the capture and storage of energy, the control of the ionic balance, or the intercellular recognition and signalling. In essence,
