Mimicking the Mammalian Plasma Membrane: An Overview of Lipid Membrane Models for Biophysical Studies
Cell membranes are very complex biological systems including a large variety of lipids and proteins. Therefore, they are difficult to extract and directly investigate with biophysical methods. For many decades, the characterization of simpler biomimetic lipid membranes, which contain only a few lipi...
