(a) Space-filling model of ChT. Active site (yellow) is surrounded by a ring of cationic residues (blue). (b) Amphiphilic MMPCs with anionic functional groups (red) in their terminals can interact with ChT via electrostatic complementarity. (c) Four derivatives of trimethylamine-functionalized surfactant used for surface modification of MMPC anionic monolayer.
