The widely-supported proposal that the addition of cholesterol to phospholipid in hydrated systems generates a physical state intermediate between liquid crystalline and gel and thereby eliminates the characteristic phospholipid liquid crystalline--gel phase transition is re-examined in relation to

The permeability of dithionite through bilayers was utilized to probe the structural defects in the bilayers of these lipids through their respective gel-fluid and bilayer-hexagonal phase transitions. The water soluble dithionite ion penetrates intact bilayers very slowly. The rate of irreversible q
The synthesis and properties of new fluorescent analogs of glycosphingolipids (galactosylcerebrosides, gangliosides GMI, GM3, GDI a and GD3 bearing a 9-anthrylvinyl or 3-perylenoyl residue in the awl chain are described. The synthesis includes steps: (i) hydrolytic removal of the fatty acyl from the
