Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2011
This is a time of critical increases in understanding membrane protein structures and their mechanisms in biology. As the first structures of membrane proteins determined by X ray crystallography from rich natural sources bovine rhodopsin bovine aquaporin from eye lens and proteins from mammalian tissues the advent of cloning and expression opened a ...

Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 1999
Although catalyzed by different proteins, the energy barriers for lipid bilayer fusion in exocytosis, viral fusion, and trafficking seem to be the same as those for the fusion of protein-free phospholipid membranes. To minimize this energy, fusion will proceed through a minimal number of lipid molecules, probably localized in bent non-bilayer ...

Membrane proteins and membrane proteomics
PROTEOMICS, 2008Abstract Biological membranes form an essential barrier between living cells and their external environments, as well as serve to compartmentalize intracellular organelles within eukaryotes. The latter includes membranes that envelope the nucleus, the outer and inner membranes of the mitochondria, membrane cisternae complex of the ER,

Membrane-membrane interactions: parallel membranes or patterned discrete contacts
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 1990Theoretical and experimental studies of thin liquid films show that, under certain conditions, the film thickness can undergo a sudden transition which gives a stable narrower film or ends in film rupture at spatially periodic points. Theoretical analysis have also indicated that similar transitions might arise in the thin aqueous layer separating ...

Mechanics of membrane–membrane adhesion
Mathematics and Mechanics of Solids, 2011Curvature elasticity is used to derive the equilibrium conditions that govern the mechanics of membrane–membrane adhesion. These include the Euler–Lagrange equations and the interface conditions which are derived here for the most general class of strain energies permissible for fluid surfaces.

Membranous Laryngotracheobronchitis
Pediatrics, 1982The etiology, clinical presentation, and therapeutic strategies associated with membranous laryngotracheobronchitis are discussed. A case is presented in which a lateral neck radiograph gave the preliminary impression of a tracheal foreign body.

From membranes to membrane machines
2008On the micrometer scale, the behavior of membranes and vesicles can be understood, to a large extent, in terms of a few parameters. Two of these parameters, which are crucial for the membrane morphology, are the vesicle volume and the preferred or ‘spontaneous’ curvature of the membrane.1 The volume is primarily determined by the osmotic conditions, i ...

Lipid Membranes for Membrane Proteins
2014The 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,
