Abstract

While the experiments, analyses, formulations, and arguments described in the preceding chapters were underway, the fields of anatomy, physiology, and biochemistry were advancing at an accelerating pace. A few pertinent issues will be discussed here; parallel studies on oxidative phosphorylation will be covered in Chapter 16.

  6. Maddy and Malcolm (1965). Their study, nevertheless, did not deal with native proteins. They measured infrared spectra of dried membranes and optical rotary dispersion of an extracted fraction.

  11. Mueller et al. (1962). This preparation is often called a “black lipid membrane” from its optical interference when illuminated at an angle. To form films efficiently they added to their extracts substances like a-tocopherol. By modern calculations, 60–90 A is too thick for a bilayer, and there probably were inclusions between the layers.
