Vesicles of l-α-dimyristoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) are known to disintegrate upon
treatment with surfactin, a lipoheptapeptide biosurfactant from Bacillus subtilis OKB 105, as …

Galactolipids are the main structural component of plant chloroplastic (thylakoid)
membranes and of blue-green algae cell membranes. The predominant lipids in this class …

Small fast-tumbling bicelles are ideal for studies of membrane interactions at molecular
level; they allow analysis of lipid properties using solution-state NMR. In the present study …

The synthesis and conformational behavior of two cyclodextrin dimers containing aromatic
bipyridine spacers is presented. The proton NMR spectra of these dimers in aqueous …

Interactions of α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) with dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and Egg
phosphatidylcholine (Egg-PC) were studied (i) by analyzing surface pressure-area …

The interactions between β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and the equimolar/nonequimolar mixtures of
sodium perfluorooctanoate (C7F15COONa, SPFO) and sodium alkyl sulfate (C n H2 n+ …

Out of all membrane mimetics available for solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)
spectroscopy, phospholipid bicelles are the most prospective. Unlike lipid-protein nanodiscs …

Understanding the pathways of solubilization of lipid membranes is of high importance for
their use in biotechnology and industrial applications. Although lipid vesicle solubilization by …
