Supported Lipid Bilayers on Biocompatible Polysaccharide Multilayers [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2011
Formation of supported lipid bilayers on soft polymer cushions is a useful approach to decouple the membrane from the substrate for applications involving membrane proteins. We prepared biocompatible polymer cushions by the layer-by-layer assembly of two polysaccharide polyelectrolytes, chitosan (CHI) and hyaluronic acid, on glass and silicon ...

Actin Assembly at Model-Supported Lipid Bilayers [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2013
We report on the use of supported lipid bilayers to reveal dynamics of actin polymerization from a nonpolymerizing subphase via cationic phospholipids. Using varying fractions of charged lipid, lipid mobility, and buffer conditions, we show that dynamics at the nanoscale can be used to control the self-assembly of these structures. In the case of fluid-

Atomic force microscopy of supported lipid bilayers [PDF]

open access: yesNature Protocols, 2008
Supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) are widely used in biophysical research to investigate the properties of biological membranes and offer exciting prospects in nanobiotechnology. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has become a well-established technique for imaging SLBs at nanometer resolution.

Measuring microtubule binding kinetics of membrane-bound kinesin motors using supported lipid bilayers [PDF]

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2021
Summary: Membrane-bound cargos in cells are generally transported by multiple kinesin motors. Quantifying the bimolecular on-rate of motors for their microtubule track is important for understanding of multi-motor transport but is complicated by ...

Energetics of lipid bilayers with applications to deformations induced by inclusions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A new energy for the description of large deformations of lipid bilayers is formulated with mathematical rigor. This energy is derived by considering the smectic A liquid crystalline nature of lipid bilayers and the coupling between the deformations of ...

Quenching Efficiency of Quantum Dots Conjugated to Lipid Bilayers on Graphene Oxide Evaluated by Fluorescence Single Particle Tracking

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
A single particle observation of quantum dots (QDs) was performed on lipid bilayers formed on graphene oxide (GO). The long-range fluorescence quenching of GO has been applied to biosensing for various biomolecules.

Effect of CM15 on Supported Lipid Bilayer Probed by Atomic Force Microscopy

open access: yesMembranes, 2023
Antimicrobial peptides are key components of the immune system. These peptides affect the membrane in various ways; some form nano-sized pores, while others only produce minor defects.

Bilayer Edges Catalyze Supported Lipid Bilayer Formation [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2010
Supported lipid bilayers (SLB) are important for the study of membrane-based phenomena and as coatings for biosensors. Nevertheless, there is a fundamental lack of understanding of the process by which they form from vesicles in solution. We report insights into the mechanism of SLB formation by vesicle adsorption using temperature-controlled time ...
