Enhanced and Durable Light‐Driven Hydrogen Evolution by Cobalt‐Based Prussian Blue Analogs in Phospholipid Bilayers

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
Light‐driven H2 evolution catalysis is reported for oleylamine‐capped MCo Prussian blue analogs (PBAs, M = Ni, Co, Zn, Cu) within phospholipid bilayers and using a ruthenium‐based amphiphilic photosensitizer. The hydrophobic interactions between the active units bring them in close proximity facilitating catalysis.

Niosome as a promising tool for increasing the effectiveness of anti-inflammatory compounds

open access: yesEXCLI Journal : Experimental and Clinical Sciences
Niosomes are drug delivery systems with widespread applications in pharmaceutical research and the cosmetic industry. Niosomes are vesicles of one or more bilayers made of non-ionic surfactants, cholesterol, and charge inducers.

Charge Recombination Kinetics of Bacterial Photosynthetic Reaction Centres Reconstituted in Liposomes: Deterministic Versus Stochastic Approach

open access: yesData, 2020
In this theoretical work, we analyse the kinetics of charge recombination reaction after a light excitation of the Reaction Centres extracted from the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides and reconstituted in small unilamellar phospholipid ...

A Fluorescence-Based Method to Measure ADP/ATP Exchange of Recombinant Adenine Nucleotide Translocase in Liposomes

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Several mitochondrial proteins, such as adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT), aspartate/glutamate carrier, dicarboxylate carrier, and uncoupling proteins 2 and 3, are suggested to have dual transport functions.

Lamellarity-Driven Differences in Surface Structural Features of DPPS Lipids: Spectroscopic, Calorimetric and Computational Study

open access: yesMembranes, 2023
Although single-lipid bilayers are usually considered models of eukaryotic plasma membranes, their research drops drastically when it comes to exclusively anionic lipid membranes.

A Single‐Molecule Liposome Assay for Membrane Permeabilization

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
The rapid screening of compounds capable of disrupting or permeabilizing biological membranes is essential to the search for new therapeutics. Here, we present an ultrasensitive single‐molecule confocal microscopy assay combined with fast‐flow microfluidics to study membrane permeabilization in large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs).

The cell-free integration of a polytopic mitochondrial membrane protein into liposomes occurs cotranslationally and in a lipid-dependent manner. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The ADP/ATP Carrier (AAC) is the most abundant transporter of the mitochondrial inner membrane. The central role that this transporter plays in cellular energy production highlights the importance of understanding its structure, function, and the basis ...

Non‐Amphiphilic Antimicrobial Polymers

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, Accepted Article.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a severe threat to modern health care and must be addressed to prevent millions of deaths in the coming decades. Antimicrobial polymers (APs) do not provoke resistances and are promising alternatives to conventional antibiotics. Classic APs possess an amphiphilic structure (cationic and hydrophobic). Herein we question

SAAP‐148 Oligomerizes into a Hexamer Forming a Hydrophobic Inner Core

open access: yesChemBioChem, EarlyView.
The highly cationic and hydrophobic antimicrobial peptide SAP‐148 effectively eradicates multidrug‐resistant bacteria, persistent cells, and biofilms without inducing resistance. Its efficiency is likely due to its ability to disrupt bacterial membranes as an oligomer, forming a stable alpha‐helical hexameric bundle with three parallel dimers that ...
