The future: relating molecular interactions to lipid structure What is an accessible goal for future studies of real and model biological membranes? Chemists place great value on having predictive ...

Quickly it became apparent that the world of lipids was one of extreme diversity in structure ... thousands of different molecular species were found to be present in tissues and cells.

They found that some lipid structures, based on their nitrogen ... "The computational work is rooted in thermodynamics, and that's chemical engineering, whereas the rest of the work is biomedical ...

"We found that the A 3 reaction was not only efficient, but also flexible enough to allow for precise control over the lipids' molecular structure," says Mitchell. This flexibility was key to fine ...
