Bottom-up assembly of functional intracellular synthetic organelles by droplet-based microfluidics
, 2020 Bottom-up synthetic biology has directed most efforts toward the construction of artificial compartmentalized systems that recreate living cell functions in their mechanical, morphological, or metabolic characteristics.

Fusogenic properties of the ectodomains of hepatitis C virus envelope proteins [PDF]
, 2014 We have used an isolated chimeric protein E1340E2661 that includes the ectodomains of the envelope proteins of epatitis C virus to study its interaction with model membranes.

Cell Reports, 2019 Summary: Intracellular vesicle fusion is mediated by soluble N-ethylmaleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs) and Sec1/Munc18 (SM) proteins. It is generally accepted that membrane fusion occurs when the vesicle and target membranes

Coarse-Grained Simulations of Membranes under Tension
, 2010 We investigate the properties of membranes under tension by Monte-Carlo simulations of a generic coarse-grained model for lipid bilayers. We give a comprising overview of the behavior of several membrane characteristics, such as the area per lipid, the ...

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 Phospho-lipid bilayer nanodiscs have gathered much scientific interest as a stable and tunable membrane mimetic for the study of membrane proteins. Until recently the size of the nanodiscs that could be produced was limited to ~ 16 nm. Recent advances in

Strain-promoted cycloadditions in lipid bilayers triggered by liposome fusion
, 2023 Due to the variety of roles served by the cell membrane, its composition and structure are complex, making it difficult to study. Bioorthogonal reactions, such as the strain promoted azide–alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC), are powerful tools for exploring the function of biomolecules in their native environment but have been largely unexplored within the ...

Coarse-Grained Model for Phospholipid/Cholesterol Bilayer
, 2004 We construct a coarse-grained (CG) model for dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC)/cholesterol bilayers and apply it to large-scale simulation studies of lipid membranes.
