Abstract
The paper reviews the main recent publications concerning infrared (IR) spectroscopy as applied to the study of lipid-protein interactions in model and cell membranes, lipoproteins, and related systems (e.g. lung surfactant). The review focuses mainly on transmission IR. Based on the available data, a number of general conclusions are presented on the perturbations caused by proteins on either the hydrocarbon chains, the polar headgroups or the interface region. Lipid-protein interactions in native cell membranes do not reveal significant differences from what is observed in semisynthetic model systems.Entities:
