Monolayers of apolipoproteins at the air/water interface

Article Abstract:

The secondary structure prediction, protein stability to overcome and revert thermal denaturation, and phase behavior of the monolayer of the human apolipoproteins AII, CIII, E3, and AI were studied. The result reveals a well-preserved relationship among the predicted secondary structure, amphipatic alpha-helices, and the ability to recover their secondary protein structure after thermal treatment.

Thermodynamics and structures of amide phospholipid monolayers

Article Abstract:

Monolayers of newly synthesized amide phospholipids, 1-O-hexadecy-2-N-palmitoyl-2-amino-2-deoxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (L-ether-amide-PC) and 1-palmitoyl-2-N-palmitoyl-2-amino-2-deoxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (L-ether-amide-PC) were investigated at the air/subphase interface by Brewster angle microscopy combined with a conventional LB trough and Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD).
