Abstract: In this work, the adsorptive behavior of Lycium barabrum polysaccharides (LBP) on 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine(POPC)/1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) and POPC/DPPC/Cholesterol (Chol) monolayer films were investigated using the Langmuir films technique and atomic force microscopy (AFM). For the POPC/DPPC system,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1063/1.5024036
Abstract: GPI-Anchored proteins (GPI-APs) can be exogenously transferred onto bilayer membranes both in vivo and in vitro, while the mechanism by which this transfer process occurs is unknown. In this work, we used atomistic molecular dynamics… read more here.
