Dimensions (nm) of lipin particles and their respective footprints on the supported bilayer
| Particlea | Particle Horizontal Width b |
Particle Vertical Width b |
Footprint Horizontal Width |
Footprint Vertical Width |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | 71.7c | 49.0 | 78.3 | n.d.d |
| #2 | 42.4 | 42.6 | 48.9 | n.d.e |
| #3 | 55.5 | 45.8 | 58.7 | 52.3 |
| #4 | 52.2 | 42.5 | 52.2 | 45.7 |
a
Particle numbers correspond to the particles as numbered in Figure 6.
b
Particle widths were measured at the base (full height) not the half height.
c
The profile of this particle suggests it is two poorly resolved lipin particles sitting adjacent to one another in the horizontal direction resulting in this large horizontal measurement.
d
Not determined because part of the footprint is occupied by the particle which was removed during imaging.
e
Not determined because this footprint appears as a doublet in the vertical direction possibly because the particle was pushed ahead of the probe during imaging and created two footprints.
