Abstract

Abstract : Lipid tubules are of particular interest for many potential applications in nanotechnology. Among various techniques for the material fabrication, the morphological regulation by proteins mimicking biological processes may provide the chances to form with highly‐tuned structures. This cover shows the enhancement of membrane tubule formation through the interaction between MamY protein isolated from magnetotactic bacteria and an anionic phospholipid, cardiolipin.
