Hydrodynamic Collective Effects of Active Protein Machines in Solution and Lipid Bilayers

open access: yes, 2015
The cytoplasm and biomembranes in biological cells contain large numbers of proteins that cyclically change their shapes. They are molecular machines that can function as molecular motors or carry out many other tasks in the cell.

Modeling biomembranes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Understanding the properties and behavior of biomembranes is fundamental to many biological processes and technologies. Microdomains in biomembranes or ''lipid rafts'' are now known to be an integral part of cell signaling, vesicle formation, fusion processes, protein trafficking, and viral and toxin infection processes.

Biomembranes in bioelectronic sensing

open access: yesTrends in Biotechnology, 2022
Cell membranes are integral to the functioning of the cell and are therefore key to drive fundamental understanding of biological processes for downstream applications. Here, we review the current state-of-the-art with respect to biomembrane systems and electronic substrates, with a view of how the field has evolved towards creating biomimetic ...

Utilizing Cooperative Proton–Electron Mixed Conduction Induced via Chemical Dedoping of Self‐Doped Poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) Nanofilms for In‐Material Physical Reservoirs

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a new concept for high‐performance in‐material physical reservoirs (PRs). An intrinsic and cooperative ion–electron state, induced by chemical dedoping in self‐doped poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (S‐PEDOT) nanofilms, enhances the performance of in‐material PRs.

Redox‐Responsive Mitochondrial Delivery from Functionalized Vascular Stent Surfaces

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
A redox‐responsive stent surface is engineered to deliver functional mitochondria in response to oxidative stress. Upon exposure to reactive oxygen species, grafted mitochondria are released, internalized by vascular cells, and restore mitochondrial function under stress.

Morphometric analysis of postnatal lung development in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica): An ultrastructural study

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract An ultrastructural morphometric analysis of the postnatal development of the lung in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica) has been conducted to evaluate the morphofunctional status of this poorly developed marsupial lung immediately following parturition.

Synthesis of 9-oxononanoyl cholesterol by ozonization1

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1998
A new route for the preparation of 9-oxononanoyl cholesterol (5) and its stable dimethylacetal (4) is described. The core aldehyde 5 is one of the major products formed during lipid peroxidation. The synthesis starts with the ozonization of oleic acid in

Investigating Interactions of Biomembranes and Alcohols: A Multiscale Approach

open access: yes, 2004
We study the interaction of lipid bilayers with short chain alcohols using molecular dynamics on different length scales. We use detailed atomistic modeling and modeling on the length scale where an alcohol is just an amphiphilic dimer.
