Molecular transport and organization in supported lipid membranes.
The mechanism by which vesicles spontaneously form supported lipid bilayer membranes on glass surfaces is becoming better understood and this knowledge is the basis of a technology of patterning membrane arrays and controlling composition. Controlled interactions between supported membranes and cells, particularly from the immune system, provide direct insight into cell-cell surface interactions.
