Lipid‐protein interactions in membranes [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1990
The interactions of lipids with integral and peripheral proteins can be studied in reconstituted and natural membranes using spin label electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. The ESR spectra reveal a reduction in mobility of the spin‐labelled lipid chains on binding of peripheral proteins to negatively‐charged lipid bilayers.

Lipid map of the mammalian cell [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Technological developments, especially in mass spectrometry and bioinformatics, have revealed that living cells contain thousands rather than dozens of different lipids [for classification and nomenclature, see Fahy et al. (Fahy et al., 2009)].

Lipid–Protein Interplay in the Regulation of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases

open access: yesCells
Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), a class of membrane proteins involved in several physiological processes such as growth, survival, angiogenesis, and differentiation, are profoundly influenced by the microenvironment, particularly by surrounding lipids.

Influence of lipids on protein-mediated transmembrane transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
: Transmembrane proteins are responsible for transporting ions and small molecules across the hydrophobic region of the cell membrane. We are reviewing the evidence for regulation of these transport processes by interactions with the lipids of the ...

Impaired lipid homeostasis and elevated lipid oxidation of erythrocyte membrane in adolescent depression

open access: yesRedox Biology
Adolescent depression is a globally concerned mental health issue, the pathophysiological mechanisms of which remain elusive. Membrane lipids play a crucial role in brain development and function, potentially serving as a crossroad for the abnormalities ...

Editorial: Membrane lipids in T cell functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Plasma membrane lipids play essential roles in regulating T cell signaling, differentiation, and effector functions. The major lipid species in the plasma membrane are glycerophospholipids, sphingolipids, and sterol lipids.

An NMR Approach for Investigating Membrane Protein–Lipid Interactions Using Native Reverse Micelles

open access: yesBio-Protocol
Peripheral membrane proteins (PMPs) are a subgroup of membrane-associated proteins that are water-soluble and bind to membranes, often reversibly, to perform their function.

Computational nanoscience and molecular modelling of shock wave interactions with biological membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Lateral diffusion of membrane components (lipids and proteins) is an important membrane property to measure since the essential process of absorption of anti-cancer and other drugs -some of which are not soluble in lipids and therefore would not be ...

The ELBA force field for coarse-grain modeling of lipid membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A new coarse-grain model for molecular dynamics simulation of lipid membranes is presented. Following a simple and conventional approach, lipid molecules are modeled by spherical sites, each representing a group of several atoms.

Mobile and Immobile Obstacles in Supported Lipid Bilayer Systems and Their Effect on Lipid Mobility

open access: yesColloids and Interfaces
Diffusion and immobilization of molecules in biomembranes are essential for life. Understanding it is crucial for biomimetic approaches where well-defined substrates are created for live cell assays or biomaterial development. Here, we present biomimetic
