A Cryoprotectant‐Compatible Nanoporous Platform for Stable and Scalable Delivery of Biopharmaceuticals

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A cryoprotectant‐compatible nanoporous platform enables ambient‐stable and scalable delivery of gene editing therapeutics. By combining hierarchical pore architecture with optimized lyophilization chemistry, the system preserves Cas9‐RNP activity post‐freeze‐drying.

Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in Bionanotechnology: Current Advances and Future Perspectives

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) enables the nanoscale mapping of electrostatic surface potentials. While widely applied in materials science, its use in biological systems remains emerging. This review presents recent advances in KPFM applied to biological samples and provides a critical perspective on current limitations and future directions for

Membrane Lipid Nanodomains

Chemical Reviews, 2018
Lipid membranes can spontaneously organize their components into domains of different sizes and properties. The organization of membrane lipids into nanodomains might potentially play a role in vital functions of cells and organisms. Model membranes represent attractive systems to study lipid nanodomains, which cannot be directly addressed in living ...

Membrane Lipid Homeostasis

2004
The lipid matrix of biological membranes is composed of a complex mixture of polar lipids. It has been estimated that more than 600 distinct molecular species of lipid are constituents of biological membranes. This rather remarkable feature raises the questions of why such complexity is required when barrier properties and many protein functions can be

Lipid-lipid and lipid-protein interactions in membranes

Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, 1980
Over the past decade spectroscopic methods (fluorescence, ESR, and NMR) have been used to provide new information about the molecular dynamics of lipid-lipid and lipid-protein interactions in membranes. The various methods of characterizing isotropic and anisotropic motion are described.

Hydrogel-Encapsulated Lipid Membranes

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2005
We have encapsulated free-standing planar lipid membranes in a polymer hydrogel via in situ photopolymerization. These encapsulated membranes were measured to last at least 5 days and provided a stable environment for single-molecule measurements of incorporated alpha-hemolysin channel proteins.

Polyelectrolyte-supported lipid membranes

Bioelectrochemistry, 2002
In this work, we report the influence of the electrostatic interaction between lipid bilayer membranes and their solid polyelectrolyte multilayer support on the properties of the membrane. All involved sample preparation steps were carried out as convenient adsorption procedures from aqueous solutions.

Lipid Membranes for Membrane Proteins

2014
The molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of membrane proteins requires the setup of an accurate representation of lipid bilayers. This chapter describes the setup of a lipid bilayer system from scratch using generally available tools, starting with a definition of the lipid molecule POPE, generation of a lipid bilayer, energy minimization, MD simulation,
