Phosphatidylserine (PS) lipids play essential roles in biological processes, including
enzyme activation and apoptosis. We report on the molecular structure and atomic scale …

Anionic palmitoyloleoylphosphatidylglycerol (POPG) is one of the most abundant lipids in
nature, yet its atomic-scale properties have not received significant attention. Here we report …

Phosphatidic acids (PAs) have many biological functions in biomembranes, eg, they are
involved in the proliferation, differentiation, and transformation of cells. Despite decades of …

Two 40ns molecular dynamics simulations of a palmitoyl-oleoyl phosphatidylserine (POPS)
lipid bilayer in the liquid crystalline phase with Na+ counterions and NaCl were carried out …

We performed a molecular dynamics simulation of dipalmitoylphosphatidylserine (DPPS)
bilayer with Na+ counterions. We found that hydrogen bonding between the NH 3+ group …

We present the detailed structural analysis of polyunsaturated fatty acid-containing
phospholipids namely, 1-palmitoyl-2-docosahexaenoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine …

Using x-ray diffraction and NMR spectroscopy, we present structural and material properties
of phosphatidylserine (PS) bilayers that may account for the well documented implications of …

Following our previous efforts in determining the structures of commonly used PC, PG, and
PS bilayers, we continue our studies of fully hydrated, fluid phase PE bilayers. The newly …

Ca2+ is known to induce the adhesion and collapse of phosphatidylserine (PS) bilayers into
dehydrated multilamellar structures. The aim of this study was to examine how that …

Lipid bilayers with a controlled content of anionic lipids are a prerequisite for the quantitative
study of hydrophobic–electrostatic interactions of proteins with lipid bilayers. Here, the …
