Quantification and visualization of phosphoinositides by quantum dot-labeled specific binding-domain probes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2012
Phosphoinositides (PI) play important regulatory roles in cell physiology. Localization and quantitation of PIs within the cell is necessary to understand their precise function.

Optical Switches for Lipid Membranes: Computed Molecular Projection Area as a Switch Selection Criterion

open access: yesColloids and Interfaces, 2022
Optical switches in lipid membranes are an emerging tool to tune the properties of the bilayer or membrane protein integrated therein. Here, we use simple geometry and physics considerations to deduce structural criteria to design efficient ...

Resolving molecule-specific information in dynamic lipid membrane processes with multi-resonant infrared metasurfaces

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
A multitude of biological processes are enabled by complex interactions between lipid membranes and proteins. To understand such dynamic processes, it is crucial to differentiate the constituent biomolecular species and track their individual time ...

Applications of neutron spin echo in soft matter

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2023
Soft matter systems exhibit diversity and intricacy in their structures and properties, with their dynamic behaviors and structural changes spanning wide time and length scales.

Structure and hydration of membranes embedded with voltage-sensing domains. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Despite the growing number of atomic-resolution membrane protein structures, direct structural information about proteins in their native membrane environment is scarce.

Cryo-EM of the dynamin polymer assembled on lipid membrane

open access: yesNature, 2018
Membrane fission is a fundamental process in the regulation and remodelling of cell membranes. Dynamin, a large GTPase, mediates membrane fission by assembling around, constricting and cleaving the necks of budding vesicles1.

Membrane-Mediated Interactions Between Protein Inclusions

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Integral or peripheral membrane proteins, or protein oligomers often get close to each other on cell membranes and carry out biological tasks in a collective manner.

OPA1 disease alleles causing dominant optic atrophy have defects in cardiolipin-stimulated GTP hydrolysis and membrane tubulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The dynamin-related GTPase OPA1 is mutated in autosomal dominant optic atrophy (DOA) (Kjer type), an inherited neuropathy of the retinal ganglion cells.

Flagellar membrane association via interaction with lipid rafts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The eukaryotic flagellar membrane has a distinct composition from other domains of the plasmalemma. Our work shows that the specialized composition of the trypanosome flagellar membrane reflects increased concentrations of sterols and saturated fatty ...

Lipid membrane templated misfolding and self-assembly of intrinsically disordered tau protein

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
The aggregation of the intrinsically disordered tau protein into highly ordered β-sheet-rich fibrils is implicated in the pathogenesis of a range of neurodegenerative disorders.
