Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

SUMMARY The cyanophage AS-1 adsorbs to vesicles of known lipid composition. The lipids used included: phosphatidylcholine (from soybean); monogalactosyldiacylglycerol, digalactosyldiacylglycerol, sulphoquinovosyldiacylglycerol, and phosphatidylglycerol (from Anacystis nidulans); cholesterol. Adsorption required the presence of phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol but not the algal lipids.
