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: A model that makes use of the cooperative organization of inorganic and organic molecular species into three dimensionally structured arrays is generalized for the synthesis of nanocomposite materials to separate the effects of self-assembly from the kinetics of silicate polymerization.

Lipid conformation in model membranes and biological membranes.
Joachim Seelig,Anna Seelig +1 more
TL;DR: Protein molecules in solution or in protein crystals are characterized by rather well-defined structures in which α-helical regions, β-pleated sheets, etc., are the key features, and the double helix of nucleic acids has almost become the trademark of molecular biology as such.

Mattress model of lipid-protein interactions in membranes
Ole G. Mouritsen,Myer Bloom +1 more
TL;DR: The model is used to interpret the influence of the lipid-protein interaction on calorimetric measurements and on local orientational order as determined by deuterium nuclear magnetic resonance.

Interfacial catalysis: the mechanism of phospholipase A2
TL;DR: Comparison of the cobra-venom complex with the uninhibited PLA2 indicates that optimal binding and catalysis at the lipid-water interface is due to facilitated substrate diffusion from the interfacial binding surface to the catalytic site rather than an allosteric change in the enzyme's structure.

Area per Lipid and Acyl Length Distributions in Fluid Phosphatidylcholines Determined by 2H NMR Spectroscopy
TL;DR: Experimental (2)H NMR measurements for the homologous series of 1, 2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholines with perdeuterated saturated chains show that the lateral packing of phospholipids is more sensitive to the headgroup methylation than to the acyl chain length.

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.
