The emphasis is on the physical properties of lipid membranes seen as soft and molecularly structured interfaces, and the applications of lipids in nano-technology and biomedicine are also described. By combining and synthesizing insights obtained from a variety of recent studies, an attempt is made to clarify what membrane structure is and how it can be quantitatively described. Furthermore, it is shown how biological function mediated by membranes is controlled by lipid membrane structure and organization on length scales ranging from the size of the individual molecule, across molecular assemblies of proteins and lipid domains in the range of nanometers, to the size of whole cells. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2014-11-29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783642421358\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/b138577\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 229cm x152cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 276\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47380170604684,"sku":"9783642421358","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783642421358.jpg?v=1775737247","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783642421358","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
