The Importance of Bilayer Asymmetry in Biological Membranes: Insights from Model Membranes
MembranesThis mini-review intends to highlight the importance of bilayer asymmetry. Biological membranes are complex structures that are a physical barrier separating the external environment from the cellular content.

Structure determination of lipid bilayers
Biophysical Journal, 1978 A method of determining the phases of X-ray reflections from oriented model membrane systems at low resolution is described. The method involves deconvolution and requires that d less than or equal to 2v where v is the width of the head group region within the bilayer and d is the thickness of the bilayer.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Azobenzene photoswitches translate molecular‐scale E/Z photoisomerization into macroscopic material responses and device‐level photonic functions. This Review highlights how azobenzene research has evolved from molecular photochemistry to photoalignment, mass migration, photomechanics, and heat release, ultimately enabling holography, reconfigurable ...

Study of protein-bacteriochlorophyll and protein-lipid interactions of natural and model light-harvesting complex 2 in purple bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides. [PDF]
, 2007 The natural design of the photosystems of plants and photosynthetic bacteria using chlorophylls (Chls) or bacteriochlorophylls (BChls) as photoreceptors are robust.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Cancer‐associated NPC remodeling creates a high‐flux, low‐stringency nuclear state that supports malignant adaptation but increases mechanical fragility. Targeting the FG‐barrier or NPC scaffold may drive mechanostat failure, envelope rupture, DNA damage, and loss of nuclear integrity.

Influence of PLIN5 and lipid composition on lipid droplet contact sites with other organelles
Biochemistry and Biophysics ReportsLipid droplets (LDs) maintain cellular lipid homeostasis through dynamic interactions with other organelles. Understanding how these contact sites form is crucial for uncovering the mechanisms of lipid exchange and signaling. In this study, we used an in

Lipid peroxidation is essential for α-synuclein-induced cell death. [PDF]
, 2015 Parkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease and its pathogenesis is closely associated with oxidative stress. Deposition of aggregated α-synuclein (α-Syn) occurs in familial and sporadic forms of Parkinson's disease.
