Abstract

The thermotropic phase behavior and organization of model membranes derived from binary mixtures of tetramyristoylcardiolipin (TMCL) with dimyristoyl phosphatidylethanolamine (DMPE) and dimyristoyl phosphatidylglycerol (DMPG) were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Cardiolipin-containing DMPE and DMPG model membranes all exhibit complex multi-component hydrocarbon chain-melting (Lβ/Lα) phase transitions upon heating and cooling.
