We are taught that plasma membranes are a typical lipid bilayer, but how do we know this, and who figured it out? Aa Aa Aa Most books mention that membranes have a typical "lipid bilayer," but why ...

Researchers study how DNA nanopores (DNPs) interact with low-curvature supported lipid bilayers over time. Using QCM-D, the study tracks diffusion, aggregation, and incorporation of DNPs, highlighting ...

A study team (Professor Ryugo Tero et al.) from the Department of Applied Chemistry and Life Science at the Toyohashi University of Technology found a phenomenon in which particular lipids were ...

The measles virus is an enveloped virus bearing a lipid bilayer. The bilayer holds the receptor binding hemagglutinin (H) protein and the fusion (F) protein. For infection to happen, the H protein ...

In silico antibody accessibility analysis indicates that ectodomain epitopes are transiently exposed, while MPER epitopes are virtually always occluded in the pre-fusion trimer.
