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).

Investigation of Phospholipid Area Compression Induced by Calcium-Mediated Dextran Sulfate Interaction

TL;DR: It is speculated that DS binding alters the phase state of low-density lipoproteins that associate with polyelectrolytes of the arterial connective tissue in the early stages of arteriosclerosis.

C60 fullerene localization and membrane interactions in RAW 264.7 immortalized mouse macrophages

TL;DR: The evidence suggests marginal uptake of C60 clusters is achieved through endocytosis/pinocyTosis, and that passive diffusion into membranes provides a significant source of biologically-available nanomaterial, as well as the surprising contribution of passive modes of cellular entry.

Specific Binding of Ro 09-0198 (Cinnamycin) to Phosphatidylethanolamine: A Thermodynamic Analysis†

TL;DR: The constancy of DeltaGdegrees together with the distinct temperature-dependence of DeltaHdegrees provide evidence for an entropy-enthalpy compensation mechanism: at 10 degrees C, complex formation is completely entropy-driven, at 50 degrees C it is enthalpy-driven.

On the ordering of N-alkane and N-alcohol solutes in phospholipid bilayer model membrane systems

TL;DR: In this paper, 2H-NMR measurements of the ordering of several n-alkane and one n-alcohol solutes in lipid bilayers formed from DML are reported.

Atomistic resolution structure and dynamics of lipid bilayers in simulations and experiments.

TL;DR: This work focuses on phosphatidylcholine lipid bilayers, which out of all model membranes have been studied mostly by experiments and simulations, leading to the largest available dataset, and concludes that the acyl chain region structure and rotational dynamics are generally well described in simulation models.

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.
