High fluidity and soft elasticity of the inner membrane of Escherichia coli revealed by the surface rheology of model Langmuir monolayers

We have studied the equilibrium and linear mechanical properties of model membranes of Escherichia coli built up as Langmuir monolayers of a native lipid extract using surface thermodynamics, fluorescence microscopy, and surface rheology measurements. The experimental study has been carried out at d...
