Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work reports on the successful formation of supported multicomponent lipid bilayer membranes (sLBMs) from natural occurring lipids as well as synthetic lipids on a set of polymer cushions consisting of alternating maleic acid copolymers. Maleic acid copolymers provide a versatile platform to adjust the physico-chemical behaviour by the choice of the comonomer unit. The formation of sLBMs was triggered by a transient reduction of the electrostatic repulsion between the polymer cushions and the lipid vesicles by lowering the solutions pH to 4. Upon formation the stability of sLBMs was not affected by subsequent variations of the environmental pH to 7.2. Even drastic changes in the environmental pH (between pH 2 and pH 9) did not lead to delamination and proved the stability of the polymer sLBM. The degree of hydrophilicity and swelling of the anionic polymer cushions was found to determine both the kinetics of the membrane formation and the mobility of the lipid bilayer with lipid diffusion coefficients in the range from 0.26 to 2.6 æm2 s-1. An increase in cushion hydrophilicity correlated with a strong increase in the diffusion coefficient of the lipids. This trend was found to correlate with the kinetics of bilayer formation in the process of vesicle spreading. The observations strongly support the important role of the support's polarity for the fluidity of the sLBM, which is probably related to the presence of a water layer between support and bilayer. The investigated polymer cushions are considered to open new options for the in situ modulation of lipid bilayer membranes characteristics to match the requirements for the successful integration of functional transmembrane proteins (TMPs). As each cushion exhibits different physico-chemical properties, the resulting behaviour of the sLBMs and TMPs could be exactly adjusted to the specific requirements of biological samples. This is exemplarily shown by the integration of the TMP beta amyloid precursor protein.

Book excerpt: In addition, three novel sorbyl-substituted head group polymerizable lipids, which have been synthesized based on a strategy that head group polymerization would minimally perturb the characteristic ion impermeability of the membrane, were evaluated for their lipid characteristics and ability to form polymers. None of these compounds forms vesicles by itself. Therefore, attempts were made to form mixed vesicles with other fluid lipids. The miscibility of the mixed monolayers was assessed using Langmuir isotherms.

Download or read book Diffusion of Supported Lipid Bilayers on PH Responsive Polymer Cushions Characterized by Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching written by Caroline Youjung Kim and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biological membranes are extremely complex, highly organized, responsive thin films composed of a myriad of lipids and proteins. Due to their complexity, supported lipid bilayers have been used as alternates to living cell membranes for study of membrane dynamics, membrane structure, and lipid-protein interactions, among other topics. The tools of modern genetic engineering and bioorganic chemistry allow us to couple many types of biomolecule to supported membranes. This results in wide variety of interfaces that can be used to control, organize and study the properties and function of membranes and membrane-associated proteins. The overarching goal has been to develop robust and easily fabricated biomimetic membrane platforms to facilitate the study of transmembrane proteins for sensing applications.Despite the large volume of research, development of solid supported membrane bilayers that recreate the proper environment has proven to be difficult. Some fundamental drawbacks have been protein substrate interactions leading to premature denaturing of the protein and minimal-to-no mobility within the membrane. To ameliorate these issues, polymer supported lipid bilayers are widely used. One of the main attractions for using polymeric cushions is to mimic thermodynamic and structural properties of free bilayer more specifically the cytoskeleton and extra cellular matrix, which is an important feature of the native cellular environment.Chapter 1 describes the fabrication and characterization of polymer supported bilayers and reviews the lateral mobility of the lipids and proteins on various types of polymer supports. Also presented are potential practical applications including biosensors and future directions of development of polymer supported lipid bilayers. Chapter 2 provides the mobility of a polymer supported lipid bilayer with a polymer cushion that is pH responsive and structurally tunable in order to provide an environmentally sensitive interface. In details, the simple preparation of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) cushioned membranes is described. The PAA cushion provides a tunable, water rich environment for supported lipid membrane applications. Conveniently the thickness of the PAA cushion can be controlled by manipulating the pH of the surrounding aqueous solution and the concentration of the spin-coating solution. As demonstrated in this work, the structure and continuity of cushioned membranes remains intact and this approach offers a robust and facile means to fabricate biological membranes for biophysical studies and sensing applications.

Book excerpt: Biophysics is a rapidly-evolving interdisciplinary science that applies theories and methods of the physical sciences to questions of biology. Biophysics encompasses many disciplines, including physics, chemistry, mathematics, biology, biochemistry, medicine, pharmacology, physiology, and neuroscience, and it is essential that scientists working in these varied fields are able to understand each other's research. Comprehensive Biophysics, Nine Volume Set will help bridge that communication gap. Written by a team of researchers at the forefront of their respective fields, under the guidance of Chief Editor Edward Egelman, Comprehensive Biophysics, Nine Volume Set provides definitive introductions to a broad array of topics, uniting different areas of biophysics research - from the physical techniques for studying macromolecular structure to protein folding, muscle and molecular motors, cell biophysics, bioenergetics and more. The result is this comprehensive scientific resource - a valuable tool both for helping researchers come to grips quickly with material from related biophysics fields outside their areas of expertise, and for reinforcing their existing knowledge. Biophysical research today encompasses many areas of biology. These studies do not necessarily share a unique identifying factor. This work unites the different areas of research and allows users, regardless of their background, to navigate through the most essential concepts with ease, saving them time and vastly improving their understanding The field of biophysics counts several journals that are directly and indirectly concerned with the field. There is no reference work that encompasses the entire field and unites the different areas of research through deep foundational reviews. Comprehensive Biophysics fills this vacuum, being a definitive work on biophysics. It will help users apply context to the diverse journal literature offering, and aid them in identifying areas for further research Chief Editor Edward Egelman (E-I-C, Biophysical Journal) has assembled an impressive, world-class team of Volume Editors and Contributing Authors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term biomimetic is comparatively new on the chemical scene, but the concept has been utilized by chemists for many years. Furthermore, the basic idea of making a synthetic material that can imitate the func tions of natural materials probably could be traced back into antiquity. From the dawn of creation, people have probably attempted to duplicate or modify the activities of the natural world. (One can even find allusions to these attempts in the Bible; e. g. , Genesis 30. ) The term "mimetic" means to imitate or mimic. The word "mimic" means to copy closely, or to imitate accurately. Biomimetic, which has not yet entered most dictionaries, means to imitate or mimic some specific bio logical function. Usually, the objective of biomimetics is to form some useful material without the need of utilizing living systems. In a simi lar manner, the term biomimetic polymers means creating synthetic poly mers which imitate the activity of natural bioactive polymers. This is a major advance in polymer chemistry because the natural bioactive polymers are the basis of life itself. Thus, biomimetic polymers imitate the life process in many ways. This present volume delineates some of the recent progress being made in this vast field of biomimetic polymers. Chemists have been making biomimetic polymers for more than fifty years, although this term wasn't used in the early investigations.
