Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Flavivirus replication is intimately associated with re-organized cellular membranes. These virus-induced changes in membrane architecture form three distinct membranous “organelles” that have specific functions during the flavivirus life cycle.

Membrane remodelling in bacteria [PDF]
Journal of Structural Biology, 2016 In bacteria the ability to remodel membrane underpins basic cell processes such as growth, and more sophisticated adaptations like inter-cell crosstalk, organelle specialisation, and pathogenesis. Here, selected examples of membrane remodelling in bacteria are presented and the diverse mechanisms for inducing membrane fission, fusion, and curvature ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Since decades plant lipid droplets (LDs) are described as storage organelles accumulated in seeds to provide energy for seedling growth after germination. Indeed, LDs are the site of accumulation for neutral lipids, predominantly triacylglycerols (TAGs),

Optimizing Gō-MARTINI Coarse-Grained Model for F-BAR Protein on Lipid Membrane
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 Coarse-grained (CG) molecular dynamics (MD) simulations allow us to access much larger length and time scales than atomistic MD simulations, providing an attractive alternative to the conventional simulations.

Membrane shape remodeling by protein crowding [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2020 AbstractThe steric repulsion between proteins on biological membranes is one of the most generic mechanisms that cause membrane shape changes. We present a minimal model where a spontaneous curvature is induced by steric repulsion between membrane-associated proteins. Our results show that the interplay between the induced spontaneous curvature and the

Computational Approaches to Explore Bacterial Toxin Entry into the Host Cell
Toxins, 2021 Many bacteria secrete toxic protein complexes that modify and disrupt essential processes in the infected cell that can lead to cell death. To conduct their action, these toxins often need to cross the cell membrane and reach a specific substrate inside ...
