Journal ArticleDOI
Nature of the Thermal pretransition of synthetic phospholipids: dimyristolyl- and dipalmitoyllecithin.
TL;DR: The hydrated synthetic lecithins, dimyristoyl and dipalmitoyllecithin, undergo two thermal transitions, a broad low enthalpy "pretransition" prior to the sharp first-order "chain-melting" transition and a structural transformation from a one-dimensional lamellar to a two-dimensional monoclinic lattice consisting of lipid lamellae distorted by a periodic ripple.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature and compositional dependence of the structure of hydrated dimyristoyl lecithin.
TL;DR: Analysis of the hydration characteristics and bilayer parameters (lipid thickness, surface area/molecule) of synthetic lecithins permits an evaluation of the generalized hydration and structural behavior of this class of lipids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and interactions of lipids in human plasma low density lipoproteins.
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the behavior of cholesterol esters in intact LDL is constrained relative to their behavior when freed from the restrictions of the particle.
Journal ArticleDOI
The three-dimensional crystal structure of cholera toxin.
Rong-Guang Zhang,David Scott,Mary L. Westbrook,Sharon Nance,Brenda D. Spangler,G. Graham Shipley,Edwin M. Westbrook +6 more
TL;DR: The three-dimensional structure of choleragen, along with those of related toxins from Shigella dysenteria and Bordetella pertussis, offer a first step towards the rational design of new vaccines and anti-microbial agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural Chemistry of 1,2 Dilauroyl-DL-phosphatidylethanolamine: Molecular Conformation and Intermolecular Packing of Phospholipids
TL;DR: One-dimensional electron density profiles across the lipid bilayer at increasing resolution clearly demonstrate the origin of features present on the low resolution profiles of both model and natural membranes.
