Advances in Planar Lipid Bilayers and Liposomes Vol. 14 (Elsevier, 2011).pdf

ISBN 9780123877208

Volume 14 of Advances in Planar Lipid Bilayers and Liposomes continues with the tradition of the past volumes and includes the invited chapters on the broad range of topics that are not limited to the planar lipid bilayers and liposomes only and in this way reflects the intensive development in the field of physics, biology, and chemistry of biological membranes and their micro- and nanostructures. This volume is dedicated to the statistical thermodynamics of adhesion points in supported membranes, the study of stability of exocytotic fusion pore, membrane instability of a planar lipid bilayer in an electric field, possible mechanisms of raft formation in cell membranes, computer simulations of multicomponent lipid bilayers and liposomes using coarse-grained models, thermal fluctuations of lipid vesicles, and interactions of biologically important molecules with lipid molecules
