Title

Membrane Dynamics in Multilamellar Vesicles Containing Glycolipids

Abstract

Naturally occurring membrane stacks, such as myelin sheaths or thylakoids (photosynthetic membranes), contain high amounts of glycolipids which are hypothesized to stabilize multilayered architectures. An aspect that has been so far neglected in the biological context is the effect such sugar-sugar binding may have on membrane dynamics. While the dynamics of the membrane are essential for its functionality, only very little known is about the change of membrane dynamics when going from a unilamellar to a multilamellar system. We propose to perform NSE measurements to elucidate that question.
