Cellular membranes are complex structures and simplified analogues in the form of model
membranes or biomembranes are used as platforms to understand fundamental properties …

Lipid bilayers supported on solid substrates were developed almost a quarter century ago
as a new model membrane system to study fundamental properties of biological membranes …

Cell membranes are very complex biological systems including a large variety of lipids and
proteins. Therefore, they are difficult to extract and directly investigate with biophysical …

The high complexity of biological membranes has motivated the development and
application of a wide range of model membrane systems to study biochemical and …

Constituting functional interactions between proteins and lipid membranes is one of the
essential features of cellular membranes. The major challenge of quantitatively studying …

Solid supported bilayer lipid membranes are model systems to mimic natural cell
membranes in order to understand structural and functional properties of such systems. The …

Supported membranes, formed as a single continuous lipid bilayer on a solid substrate,
such as silica, have been used extensively as a model for protein‐protein and cell‐cell …

The complexity of the biological membranes restricts their direct investigation at the
nanoscale. Lipid bilayer membranes have been developed as a model of biological …
