Journal ArticleDOI

Lipid bilayer structure determined by the simultaneous analysis of neutron and X-ray scattering data.

TL;DR: An improved method for determining lipid areas helps to reconcile long-standing differences in the values of lipid areas obtained from stand-alone x-ray and neutron scattering experiments and poses new challenges for molecular dynamics simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Curvature Effect on the Structure of Phospholipid Bilayers

TL;DR: Both the inner and outer leaflets of the bilayer were found to be indistinguishable, which agrees well with simple geometric models describing the effect of vesicle curvature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bicellar lipid mixtures as used in biochemical and biophysical studies

TL;DR: The biophysical studies that have elucidated the various morphologies assumed by these lipid mixtures are examined, and their use in the biochemical studies of biomolecules is examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Osmotically induced shape changes of large unilamellar vesicles measured by dynamic light scattering.

TL;DR: Under conditions similar to those of this study, the ADE model predicts an evolution from spherical to prolate then oblate shapes on increasing volume reduction of LUVs, but it was found that DOPC vesicles became oblate at all applied volume reductions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bilayer thickness and thermal response of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine unilamellar vesicles containing cholesterol, ergosterol and lanosterol: a small-angle neutron scattering study.

TL;DR: This is the first time such results have been presented for membranes containing the structurally related sterols, ergosterol and lanosterol, and large differences in the influence of these sterols on the membrane thermal area expansion coefficient are observed.
