Binding of glucagon to lipid bilayers

Biochemistry and Cell Biology, 1990
At physiological pH and temperature, glucagon binds to liposomes composed of egg phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol (2:1 mol/mol) in a highly specific manner. The chemical reactivities of the functional groups were determined over the concentration range of 1.0 × 10−6 – 3.0 × 10−8 M by the method of competitive labelling with 1-fluoro-2,4 ...

Lipid binding capacity of spider hemocyanin

Journal of Experimental Zoology, 1999
The spider hemocyanin capacity to bind different lipid classes was evaluated by measuring some binding kinetic parameters. A very high lipoprotein (VHDL) which contains hemocyanin, was isolated from Polybetes pythagoricus hemolymph plasma and delipidated.

d-amphetamine binding to brain lipid

Neurochemical Research, 1978
The interaction of d-amphetamine with several brain tissue components has been investigated. A brain lipid extract and a number of individual phospholipids were found to bind d-amphetamine when measured by means of a hexane-buffer partition coefficient technique.

Lipid Binding of Membrane Proteins

1972
There is increasing evidence at present time that about half of the proteins of various biomembrane-types are bound to the lipids within the membrane by predominantly hydrophobic interaction (1). But almost nothing is Known about what sequences or regions of the membrane polypeptides do bind to the acyl chains of the lipids.

Binding of Lipids on Lipid Transfer Proteins

1997
LTPs transfer phospholipids between membranes “in vitro” (1). Plant LTPs are still in search of an “in vivo” role. These proteins share in common structural and functional properties (1). NMR and X-ray crystallography have been carried out on plant LTPs.

Lipid Affinity Beads: From Identifying New Lipid Binding Proteins to Assessing Their Binding Properties

2013
Lipid affinity beads can be used to identify novel proteins with lipid binding capacity or to determine binding prerequisites of known lipid-binding proteins. Here we describe several applications for which this tool can be used and which considerations have to be taken into account.

Serum Albumin, Lipid and Drug Binding

2020
Albumin is widely conserved from vertebrates to invertebrates, and nature of mammalian albumins permit them to bind various endogenous ligands and drugs in the blood. It is known that at least two major ligand binding sites are present on the albumin molecule, which are referred to as Site I and Site II.

Transmission of Binding Information across Lipid Bilayers

Chemistry – A European Journal, 2007
AbstractA synthetic transmembrane receptor that is capable of transmitting binding information across a lipid bilayer membrane is reported. The binding event is based on aggregation of the receptor triggered by copper(II) complexation to ethylenediamine functionalities.

Human Milk Lipids Bind Shiga Toxin

2001
Hemolytic uremic syndrome, a serious complication of Shiga toxin-associated diarrhea, is rare before 6 months of age. Immunologic and nonimmunologic factors present in human milk may partially explain this observation. In prior studies, we have demonstrated that human milk contains Gb3, the receptor for the B subunit of Shiga toxin, and also contains ...

Binding at lipid surfaces: Nystatin

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 1973
Abstract The binding of the antibiotic, nystatin, to aqueous dispersions of phospholipids was measured by separating a lipid pellet from the system. The pellet was dissolved in methanol, and the amount of nystatin bound was determined spectrometrically. The bindings by dimyristoyl and dipalmitoyl lecithin in the gel phase were strong; these, however,
