TLDR
Proton and carbon-13 nmr spectra of unsonicated lipid bilayers and biological membranes are generally dominated by strong proton-proton and proton–carbon dipolar interactions and are rather difficult to analyse.Abstract:
Proton and carbon-13 nmr spectra of unsonicated lipid bilayers and biological membranes are generally dominated by strong proton–proton and proton–carbon dipolar interactions. As a result the spectra contain a large number of overlapping resonances and are rather difficult to analyse. Nevertheless, important information on the structure and dynamic behaviour of lipid systems has been provided by these techniques (Wennerstrom & Lindblom, 1977).read more

TL;DR: All-atom molecular dynamics simulations are used to investigate the effects of the Gb3 concentration and its acyl chain saturation on the phase behaviour of a mixed bilayer of dioleoylphosphatidylcholine and G b3 and provide the first molecular level structural model of Gb 3 in membranes.

A Molecular Dynamics Study of the Interface between a Membrane and Water
TL;DR: In this paper, the interface between a membrane, modelled by an ensemble of COO − functional groups with rotational and translational degrees of freedom, and liquid water, represented by the TIP4P model, is studied by molecular dynamics (MD) computer simulations.

Selectivity of cateslytin for fungi: the role of acidic lipid-ergosterol membrane fluidity in antimicrobial action.
TL;DR: The intrinsic greater membrane fluidity of ergosterol/acidic lipid components in fungi is shown to be one of the key factors for specific cateslytin biological action.

Deuterium nuclear magnetic resonance study of the nematic phase of vanadium pentoxide aqueous suspensions
TL;DR: In this paper, deuterium NMR experiments on nematic single domains of vanadium pentoxide suspensions in D2O were conducted and the spectra were well-resolved quad-quadratic.

Ceramide-1-phosphate, in contrast to ceramide, is not segregated into lateral lipid domains in phosphatidylcholine bilayers

TL;DR: Observations indicate that DPPC and POPC bilayers are significantly less perturbed by C(16)-C1P than by C (16)-ceramide and that C( 16)-C 1P is miscible within DPPC bilayers at least up to X(C1p) = 0.30.

Principles of magnetic resonance
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of changing the precession frequency of the magnetic field has been studied using NMR to study rate properties. But the effect is limited to the case of double and double resonance.
