Rectangular solid domains in ceramide-cholesterol monolayers - 2D crystals
(2000) In Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - Biomembranes 1464(1).- Abstract
Very small rectangular domains were observed by atomic force microscopy in binary monolayers of synthetic ceramides and cholesterol. When the cholesterol content is increased the domains are bigger although the rectangular shape is retained. The almost perfect shape of the domains indicates two-dimensional single ceramide crystals. Lipid domains in monolayers of this particular shape and size have to our knowledge not been reported in the literature previously.
