The Giant Vesicle Book

2019
This practical manual gives the reader a toolbox for starting work with giant vesicles, including expert's tips on proper preparation methods, measurement, and characterization methods. The contents build from a simple model to use of vesicles as advanced membrane and cell system models. It also includes fundamentals for understanding vesicle structure,

Protein Reconstitution Inside Giant Unilamellar Vesicles

Annual Review of Biophysics, 2021
Giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) have gained great popularity as mimicries for cellular membranes. As their sizes are comfortably above the optical resolution limit, and their lipid composition is easily controlled, they are ideal for quantitative light microscopic investigation of dynamic processes in and on membranes.

Depth-Profiling with Giant Vesicle Membranes

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2002
A phospholipid fluorescent-labeled in one of three locations was paired with a phospholipid labeled with a quencher in one of three locations within a host phospholipid bilayer. The various combinations of quenching efficiencies allowed the location of the fluorescent labels to be determined.

Giant vesicles as cell models

Integrative Biology, 2012
Tremendous progress has been made in recent years in understanding the working of the living cell, including its micro-anatomy, signalling networks, and regulation of genes. However, an understanding of cellular phenomena using fundamental laws starting from first principles is still very far away.

Giant Vesicles: Preparations and Applications

ChemBioChem, 2010
AbstractThere is considerable interest in preparing cell‐sized giant unilamellar vesicles from natural or nonnatural amphiphiles because a giant vesicle membrane resembles the self‐closed lipid matrix of the plasma membrane of all biological cells. Currently, giant vesicles are applied to investigate certain aspects of biomembranes.

Giant Vesicles with Membranous Microcompartments

Langmuir, 2011
Incubation of a cell-sized lipid membrane vesicle (giant vesicle, GV) in a diluted aqueous solution of neutral phosphate buffer salts or glucose transformed the GV to an oligovesicular vesicle (OVV) that encapsulates one or more smaller GVs. During the incubation, the membrane of flaccid vesicle invaginated and closed to form the inner vesicle of an ...

Identifying Conditions for Protein Synthesis Inside Giant Vesicles Using Microfluidics toward Standardized Artificial Cell Production.

ACS Synthetic Biology, 2023
To expand the range of practical applications of artificial cells, it is important to standardize the production process of giant (cell-sized) vesicles that encapsulate reconstituted biochemical reaction systems.
