U-bearing sandstones from the Dongsheng deposit in Ordos Basin contain abundant C15-C18 fatty acids. The fatty acids may have been derived from modern and ancient organisms including organisms from the intervals of U ...
The peculiarities of lipids in lacustrine core sediments from Fildes Peninsula, King George Island, Antarctica, are reported. The origin of high-molecular-weight n-alkanes, alkenes, fatty acids, alcohols is supposed t...
Free sterols from rice dry embryo reduce the onset phase transition temperature and widen the transition range of total polar lipids and phosphatidylglycerol, which increases the membrane fluidity below their phase tr...
BIOMARKERS used as indicators of the paleoclimatic and paleoenvironmental changes are re-quired to be bio-specific in origin and be stable in the early diagenesis process. The input ofplenty of land-derived organics, ...
Studies of the influences of divalent metal ions on the activity of porcine heart H+-ATPase enzymes reconstituted with soybean phospholipid liposomes show that the divalent cations Mg2+, Co2+, Mn2+, etc., may increase...
In the previous paper a study on the effect of anisodamine, scopolamine, anisodine and atropine on the fluidity of DPPC liposomes using DSC technique has been reported. Results showed that anisodamine and atropine can...
The interaction between membrane protein and lipid has become one of the crucial subjects in the biomembrane research. In recent years, great efforts have been made to investigate the influence of membrane protein upo...
In recent years, the fluorescence photobleaching recovery (FPR) technique has been used for conducting a series of studies on the lateral mobility of proteins and lipids of the cell membrane. This technique was first ...
Biomembranes mainly consist of lipids and proteins. Their various physiological functions can be affected by the phase transition behavior of membrane lipids. Many techniques have been used to study the phase transiti...
