As reported earlier, the marine sponge phospholipids 1,2-di-5,9-hexacosadienoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PC (26 : 2, 26 : 2)) and its phosphoethanolamine counterpart exclude cholesterol to a great extent from their liposomal bilayers. To understand the reason for this exclusion, shorter acyl cha
The photoinduced interaction of thionine dye with phosphatidylcholine (PC) (and its components, e.g. lysoPC, phosphorylcholine and choline) and oxidized cholesterol was studied in artificial membranes using spectrophotometric and photoelectrochemical methods. The results show that the dye (electron
