which is itself a phospholipid. Phospholipids are key components of cell membranes, and are used in the creation of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for targeted drug delivery. DOPE-Cx can form a special ...

Here, we used 1,2-di- (octadecenoyl)- sn -glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC), a commonly found phospholipid in mammalian cell membranes, to synthesize large unilamellar vesicles to investigate how the ...

Here we use cryogenic electron microscopy to determine the structure of TbAQP2 from Trypanosoma brucei, bound to either the substrate glycerol or to the sleeping sickness drugs, pentamidine or ...

Researchers reveal how hydration shapes peptide assembly on 2D materials, offering new insights for bioelectronics and ...

To gain a better understanding of how monovalent salt under physiological conditions affects plasma membranes, we have performed 200 ns atomic-scale molecular dynamics simulations of ...
