The effect of dolichol on the permeability properties of phosphatidylcholine bilayers

The permeability of liposomes to water, glucose, Ca2+ and alkaline cations was monitored by recording the change in absorbance at 450 nm using a rapid reaction stopped-flow spectrophotometer. Liposomes were prepared with egg phosphatidylcholine and concentrations of dolichol ranging from 0.1% to 9%...
