Fluorescence Studies of Membrane Dynamics and Heterogeneity

  • Chapter
Book cover Artificial and Reconstituted Membrane Systems

Part of the book series: Subcellular Biochemistry ((SCBI,volume 14))

Abstract

The cellular morphology of lipid bilayer membranes acting as dynamic boundaries is well established. Their biological function, however, is determined at the molecular level. Thus, techniques sensitive to molecular conformation are required to understand how membranes work.
