Functional reconstitution of a voltage-gated potassium channel in giant unilamellar vesicles. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Voltage-gated ion channels are key players in cellular excitability. Recent studies suggest that their behavior can depend strongly on the membrane lipid composition and physical state. In vivo studies of membrane/channel and channel/channel interactions

Formation of Giant Unilamellar Vesicles Assisted by Fluorinated Nanoparticles
Advanced Science, 2023 In the quest to produce artificial cells, one key challenge that remains to be solved is the recreation of a complex cellular membrane. Among the existing models, giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) are particularly interesting due to their intrinsic ...

Morphology, biophysical properties and protein-mediated fusion of archaeosomes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 As variance from standard phospholipids of eubacteria and eukaryotes, archaebacterial diether phospholipids contain branched alcohol chains (phytanol) linked to glycerol exclusively with ether bonds.

Membrane-dependent assembly of Bruton's tyrosine kinase mediated by the Proline-rich region and SH3 domain. [PDF]
Protein SciAbstract Cellular membranes provide a unique platform for interactions that drive emergent behaviors in protein dynamics and cellular signaling, distinct from those observed in solution. We investigated the proline‐rich region (PRR) and Src Homology 3 (SH3) domains of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) and its phase separation driven by the weak ...

Reconstitution and functional studies of hamster P-glycoprotein in giant liposomes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 This paper describes the preparation of giant unilamellar vesicles with reconstituted hamster P-glycoprotein (Pgp, ABCB1) for studying the transport activity of this efflux pump in individual liposomes using optical microscopy.
