Lipid-Protein Interactions Alter Line Tensions and Domain Size Distributions in Lung Surfactant Monolayers by Dhar, Prajnaparamita, Eck, Elizabeth, Israelachvili, Jacob N., Lee, Dong Woog, Min, Younjin, Ramachandran, Arun, Waring, Alan J., Zasadzinski, Joseph A.

“…We find that SP-B increases the line tension, dipole density difference, and the compressibility modulus at surface pressures up to the squeeze-out pressure. The increase in line tension due to SP-B indicates the protein avoids domain boundaries due to its solubility in the more fluid regions of the film.…”

Harnessing a methane-fueled, sediment-free mixed microbial community for utilization of distributed sources of natural gas by Marlow, Jeffrey J., Kumar, Amit, Enalls, Brandon C., Reynard, Linda M., Tuross, Noreen, Stephanopoulos, Gregory, Girguis, Peter

“…Notably, the microbial constituents responsible for this bioconversion are most prominent in select deep-sea sediments, and while they can be kept active at surface pressures, they have not yet been cultured in the lab. …”
