The interaction between phosphatidylcholine (PC) and cholesterol was studied in benzene with the help of vapour-pressure osmometry and static dielectric measurements. No indication for the occurrence of molecular complexes was found. Instead, our results can be explained by assuming PC aggregates (a

Melittin is shown to affect the structure of the charged phospholipid dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol (DPPG). In the gel phase, the presence of melittin leads to (i) an increased lipid interchain vibrational coupling, (ii) a shift of the rectangular to hexagonal lipid packing transition toward low t
Various phosphatidylcholines differing either in the stereochemistry around their chiral center or in the position of a cis double bond along the acyl chains were synthesized in order to study critical contact regions in the phospholipid molecule with adjacent cholesterol in model membranes.

## Abstract FKBP51 is a member of the immunophilin family having intrinsic peptidylβprolyl cisβtransβisomerase (PPIase) activity. Its enzymatic activity is inhibited by binding either immunosuppressive agent FK506 or rapamycin. Similar to FKBP12, but at higher concentrations of FK506, FKBP51 has be
