Scientific paper

We present electron density maps of the ripple phase of chiral and racemic
dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine. The structures of the two systems are found to
be identical within experimental errors, thus unambiguously showing that the
chirality of the lipid molecules does not influence the structure of this
phase.
