Kavli Affiliate: Gerald W. Feigenson | Summary:Multicomponent lipid mixtures exhibit complex phase behavior, including coexistence of nanoscopic fluid phases in ternary mixtures mimicking the composition of the outer leaflet of mammalian plasma membrane. The physical mechanisms responsible for the small size of phase domains are unknown, due in part to the difficulty of determining the […]
