Molecular Rearrangements in Protomembrane Models Probed by Laurdan Fluorescence
Lipid membranes are a key component of living systems and have been essential to the origin of life. One hypothesis for the origin of life assumes the existence of protomembranes with ancient lipids formed by Fischer–Tropsch synthesis. We determined the mesophase structure and fluidity of a prototyp...
