A tuneable minimal cell membrane reveals that two lipid species suffice for life

Abstract All cells are encapsulated by a lipid membrane that facilitates their interactions with the environment. How cells manage diverse mixtures of lipids, which dictate membrane property and function, is experimentally challenging to address. Here, we present an approach to tune and minimize mem...
