air—waterinterface, and are soluble in organic solvents. Bile salts are water soluble, spreadactively at air—water interface., and are insoluble in organic solvents. The purpose of thispaper is to describe some of the physical properties of biological lipids interacting withaqueous systems and ...
Here, a green and simple method to fabricate micro/nanobubbles was developed by the temperature-regulated self-assembly of lipids in the presence of free bubbles. The self-assembly mechanism of lipids interacting with gas-water interfaces was investigated, and the ultrasound imaging of the obtained ...
In this study we performed Raman spectroscopic investigations of human skin, stratum corneum, hair, and, which to determine the conformation of proteins, lipids, and water structure. We showed that it is possible to obtain highly reproducible spectra with this technique. We were particularly interest...
The term lipid is applied to a multitude of substances of differing chemical structure and biological function whose only common feature is that they are insoluble in water but readily soluble in organic solvents such as chloroform, benzene, diethyl ether or hot ethanol. A large proportion of the...
This means that the most “comfortable” arrangement for the phospholipids to take is to tuck their tails together in a water-free interior space, with the polar head groups facing out, interacting with water (Figure 12) – this is called a micelle<. You can learn more about the ways in...
7A). By comparison with water-soluble protein standards the Stokes radius of the protein–detergent complex can be estimated [162], [163]. However, it should be taken into account that bound detergent by itself may make a significant contribution to the size of the complex. In addition, for...

It was revealed that the TDM-containing membrane systems show altered bilayer hydration governed by the MA chain dynam- ics/conformations, trehalose head group-water interactions, and molecular interactions induced by DAG and DPPG. Employing GUVs stained with n-Rh-DHPE (that selectively partitions ...
(Fig.5C and D). Interestingly, a water layer strongly bound to the polar head of DP-DGTS appears as a shoulder in the profile in Fig.5C, whereas this shoulder is absent in Fig.5D for DPPC bilayers. Therefore, the simulation indicates different interactions with water molecules for DP-D...
Thus, K710 may serve as a guiding residue directing LPA into this access tunnel by interacting with the negative charge of the phosphate headgroup on LPA. More generally, we and others have shown that lipid regulation is a common feature of many TRP channel family members3. While the ...
