Helical structures of nucleic acid-lipid conjugates: formation and morphology of helical structures from dimyristoyl-5'-phosphatidylribonucleosides.
Phospholipid-ribonucleoside conjugates containing two myristoyl groups and a ribonucleotidyl group, dimyristoyl-5'-phosphatidylribonucleosides have been synthesized and their self-organization and morphology have been investigated. Dimyristoyl-5'-phosphatidylribonucleosides spontaneously assembled to form various types of helical strands.
