Shape Transformations of Lipid Vesicles by Insertion of Bulky-Head Lipids. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Lipid vesicles, in particular Giant Unilamellar Vesicles (GUVs), have been increasingly important as compartments of artificial cells to reconstruct living cell-like systems in a bottom-up fashion.

Gel-Assisted Formation of Giant Unilamellar Vesicles [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2013
Giant unilamellar vesicles or GUVs are systems of choice as biomimetic models of cellular membranes. Although a variety of procedures exist for making single walled vesicles of tens of microns in size, the range of lipid compositions that can be used to grow GUVs by the conventional methods is quite limited, and many of the available methods involve ...

Photoactivated Signaling Networks using DNA‐Based Synthetic Organelles as Biomimetic Protocells

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Light‐triggered intercommunication between two types of organelle‐loaded liposomes lead to DNAzyme‐mediated on transcription‐guided structural reconfiguration of the organelles. ABSTRACT Membraneless organelles formed by phase‐separated nucleic acid or protein condensates play vital roles in regulating cellular functions.

Hydrogels Under Superchaotropic Control: Polyoxometalate Stabilization and pH‐Responsive Crosslinking in Cellulose Ether Solutions

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Superchaotropic binding of Keggin polyoxometalates (POMs) to non‐ionic biopolymers like cellulose ethers (CEs) stabilizes otherwise hydrolytically unstable POMs in aqueous solution and allows conversion of pH‐nonresponsive polymers into pH‐responsive soft materials. The pH‐driven conversion from plenary to lacunary POMs switches superchaotropic binding

Electric Fields and Giant Vesicles [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2010
Electric fields are omnipresent in our world, and are relevant not only from a physics point of view. Indeed, they also play a crucial role in several biological mechanisms occurring in living organisms, and they can turn out to be useful and easy-to-use tools to alter or to measure various biomaterials properties [1].Provided they have the appropriate

Imaging optical thicknesses and separation distances of phospholipid vesicles at solid surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
We present the application of reflection interference contrast microscopy (RICM) (1) to map the optical density of supported bilayers and vesicles and (2) to image the contact profile of phospholipid vesicles at surfaces.

Hierarchically Engineered Multi‐Enzyme Nanoreactors for in vitro Drug Biosynthesis and Pathway Transplantation Into Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A hierarchically structured metal–organic framework (eMIL) is shown to host the complete six‐enzyme biosynthesis pathway for the anti‐cancer pigment violacein, reshaping reaction dynamics and multiplying in vitro yields. eMIL nanoreactors deliver this reconstituted bacterial multi‐protein system into mammalian cells, where cell‐derived substrates and ...
