A research group has developed a technology for mass-producing uniform artificial cells (lipid bilayer vesicles) with ...

Abstract:A research group led by Professor SUZUKI Hiroaki from Faculty of Science and Engineering at Chuo University, graduate students YONEYAMA ...

The baby was rested, clean—and still crying. It appeared that she was hungry, but, maddeningly, she would not take her bottle ...

This important study presents a compelling theoretical framework for understanding phase separation of membrane-bound proteins, with a focus on the organization of tight junction components. By ...

"This region sits right at the lipid bilayer—or membrane—on the HIV cells," says first author Colleen Maillie, a joint Ph.D. candidate in the labs of Mravic and Andrew Ward, who was a co ...

Abstract: From an electrical point of view a planar lipid bilayer can be considered as a non-perfect capacitor; it can be presented as an ideal capacitor in parallel with resistor. In this study the ...

Lipid bilayers in mammalian membranes can have a more asymmetric composition than previously thought, new research shows. This lipid abundance asymmetry is enabled by the unique properties of ...

These lipids, known as phospholipids, are arranged in a bilayer of membranes, regulating entry and exit of certain molecules to maintain a stable internal environment. Scientists at Kyoto ...

The combined preparative and analytical MemPrep approach uncovers dynamic remodeling of ER membranes in stressed cells and establishes distinct molecular fingerprints of lipid bilayer stress. This ...

Abstract: This paper describes a method for the formation of a lipid bilayer on a droplet-based chamber array. This method enables us to form small chambers sealed with lipid bilayers easily. The ...
