Neutron Reflection Studies on Adsorption of Myristoyl-L-Carnitine at the Air/...
The acyl-L-carnitines are a group of novel surfactants. Following our recent home laboratory work to synthesize, purify and characterize them, the aim of this proposal is to... -
Understanding the true biological function of Plant Non Specific Lipid Transf...
Non specific lipid transfer proteins are a family of basic, cysteine rich proteins found in a wide range of plant species. The biotechnological role of these proteins in beer... -
Membrane Composition-Dependent Interaction between Beta-Arrestins and Lipid M...
Beta-arrestins are proteins that regulate GPCR signaling, e.g. by recruiting endocytic components to remove the receptor from the plasma membrane. Our fluorescence microscopy... -
An Investigation of Interfacial Structure of Pluronics at Solid-Liquid Interf...
Tri-block copolymers offer an excellent model system for the study of crystallization in the bulk as well as close to interfaces. It is known that the structures formed by this... -
Antibody-polysorbate surface interactions
Of concern to the bioprocessing industry is the manner in which polysorbates included in solution formulations of antibodies affect the kinetics and equilibrium state of... -
Adsorption of nanodics (stabilised by sytrene-maleic anhydride derived copoly...
Nanodiscs are self-assembled structures that consist of a bilayer of phospholipids controlled in diameter by a polymer or protein belt. We have already shown that such discs... -
Lipopolysaccharide Functions as Bacterial Receptors to Antimicrobial Peptides
Neutron reflection (NR) is well established for studying molecular films such as lipid monolayers. Its high depth resolution combined with deuterium labelling can determine the... -
Neutron reflection studies on model wax films reconstituted from chemicals
Morphological features of plant waxes vary from species to species, but little is understood about what controls these morphological changes although it is widely believed that... -
