Journal ArticleDOI
Study and formation of vesicle systems with low polydispersity index by ultrasound method.
TL;DR: A systematic method is proposed in which the physical characteristics of the vesicles may be controlled as a function of sonication time and power and results confirmed that vesicle size, lamellarity and the polydispersity index decreased with the increase of sonications power.

A fluid floating bilayer
Giovanna Fragneto,Thierry Charitat,François Graner,Klaus Mecke,L. Perino-Gallice,Edith Bellet-Amalric +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a highly hydrated lipid bilayer, floating a few A above another one adsorbed on a smooth solid substrate, was prepared at room temperature where lipids (DSPC) are in gel phase, then heated at several temperatures including the pretransitional temperature Tp and the chain melting temperature Tm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subdiffusion and lateral diffusion coefficient of lipid atoms and molecules in phospholipid bilayers
TL;DR: A memory-function approach is proposed for calculatingeltar(t)2 over the entire time range extending from the ballistic to the Fickian diffusion regimes, which is in very good agreement with the ones from the MD simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calcium- and myristoyl-dependent properties of guanylate cyclase-activating protein-1 and protein-2.
Ji-Young Hwang,Karl-Wilhelm Koch +1 more
TL;DR: The myristoyl group controls the Ca2+-sensitivity ofGCAP-1 (not that of GCAP-2) by an allosteric mechanism, but this control step does not involve a myristoysl switch.
Journal ArticleDOI
Liquid crystalline materials with complex mesophase morphologies
TL;DR: The mesophase morphologies of polyphilic block molecules and dendrimers have attracted increasing interest during the recent years as discussed by the authors, which are bicontinuous and discontinuous cubic mesophases and other two and three-dimensionalally ordered intermediate phases, superstructures induced by molecular chirality or by polar order of bent core molecules, novel biaxial smectic phases, and novel mesophasing morphologies.
