Phase changes in the lipid moieties of sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes induced by temperature and protein conformation changes
TL;DR: Evidence is presented that the second transition reflects hydrophobic lipid-protein interactions and the effect of protein conformational changes on the dynamic state of membrane lipids.

Perturbations of the dynamics of lipid alkyl chains in membrane systems: effect on the activity of membrane-bound enzymes.
TL;DR: Experimental evidence indicates that adamante lowers the transition temperatures detected from the temperature dependence of the motion of spin labels and from the Arrhenius plots of O 2 uptake, which infers that membrane-dependent physiological functions are dependent upon the physical state of membrane lipids.

Spin-label studies of dynamics of lipid alkyl chains in biological membranes: role of unsaturated sites.
S. Eletr,Alec D. Keith +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that triple bonds and cis double bonds inhibit a relatively ordered packing of lipid alkyl chains in the region between unsaturated sites and terminal methyl groups, leaving the hydrophobic region bounded by acyl groups and uns saturated sites unaffected.
