A Deuterium Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Study of Phospholipid and Glycosphingolipid Headgroup Structure
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe results of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments with various phospholipids and glycosphingolipids are used to derive structural and motional information about these molecules within lipid bilayers. Reasonable models of motion are inferred from various experimental results, and calculated NMR parameters are determined for all molecular orientations within desired conformational spaces. These calculated results are compared with the experimental results to determine which conformations are possible solutions to the headgroup structure.
