## Abstract Lateral phase separations of phospholipids in both bacterial membranes and model membrane systems (phospholipid bilayers) can be studied using spin labels. Temperature–composition phase diagrams have been determined for binary mixtures of lipids dispersed in excess water by measurements

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
Lateral phase separations in lipid and lipid‐protein systems are discussed with the aid of phase diagrams derived from spin‐label measurements. Freeze‐fracture data from E. coli membranes and model lipid–protein bilayers indicate that the protein tends to associate with fluid lipid phases.

## Abstract Evidence from mass‐spectrometry experiments and molecular dynamics simulations suggests that it is possible to transfer proteins, or in general biomolecular aggregates, from solution to the gas‐phase without grave impact on the structure. If correct, this allows interpretation of such e
