Abstract excerpt
In a previous study, sarcolipin (SLN) was shown to form channels selective toward chloride ion when incorporated in a mercury-supported tethered bilayer lipid membrane (tBLM). Its incorporation had only a modest permeabilizing effect on phosphate ion. In this note the resistance of a tBLM membrane incorporating sarcolipin was investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in aqueous solutions of 0.05 M...
