Nanodiscs are self assembled complexes of phospholipids and a class of amphipathic helical proteins termed membrane scaffold proteins . The proteins and lipids self-assemble...

The purpose with the proposed project is to provide a better understanding of structural changes in interfacial lipid layers due action of lipolytic enzymes. In this study we...

Biological membranes do not only occur as planar bilayer structures, but bilayers have also been shown to, depending onthe lipid composition, curve into intriguing 3D...

Proteins from Moringa trees have attracted considerable interest as flocculents for water purification and possibly as materials for remediation of contaminated soil....

Neutron reflection will be used to reveal the structural changes from different inner membrane leaflet models upon interacting with a group of antimicrobial lipopeptides with...

Oxidation of atmospheric aerosol can produce cloud condensation nuclei capable of changing the reflectivity and lifetime of clouds. The oxidation of organic film on atmospheric...

We propose to perform combined measurements of neutron reflectometry (NR) and impedance spectroscopy (IS) to investigate the structure/function relationship of tethered bilayer...

Tissue Factor (TF) is a membrane protein located on the cell surfaces of extravascular cells. TF activity is fundamental for normal homeostasis- the physiological process which...

Zwitterionics (here, alkyldimethylammonium carboxybetaines) are widely used in applications which require "mildness", e g cosmetics and isolation of membrane proteins, although...
