An abnormal fibrinogen that caused aggregation of red blood cells (RBC) in a patient with gangrene was examined by real-time X-ray diffraction to determine its effects on dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and 1-palmitoyl-,2oleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (POPE) phase transitions. Similar studies

## Abstract When cells are cooled to temperatures above the freezing point of water at rates greater than a few degrees per minute, they sustain irreversible injury. Reduction of this βcold shockβ damage could increase the survival of animals and plants at low environmental temperatures and improve
Lateral diffusion of phosphatide molecules in liquid crystalline bilayers has been analysed as a case of co-operative lattice diffusion. The potential energy of interaction between two molecules is assumed to arise from Van der Waals interactions of the hydrocarbon chains, and to have the form sugge
## Abstract Two lipid environments are detected in membranous cytochrome oxidase, using spin labeling techniques. This model membrane system consists of closed vesicular membranes formed spontaneously when the membrane protein is isolated with its accompanying phospholipids. The data show both an i
