Biotechnology applications of tethered lipid bilayer membranes by Jackman, Joshua A., Knoll, Wolfgang, Cho, Nam-Joon

“…The importance of cell membranes in biological systems has prompted the development of model membrane platforms that recapitulate fundamental aspects of membrane biology, especially the lipid bilayer environment. Tethered lipid bilayers represent one of the most promising classes of model membranes and are based on the immobilization of a planar lipid bilayer on a solid support that enables characterization by a wide range of surface-sensitive analytical techniques. …”

Bicelle-based supported lipid bilayer platforms by Sut, Tun Naw

“…The deposition of bicelles, which are two-dimensional lipid nanostructures composed of long- and short-chain phospholipids, onto hydrophilic surfaces is an emerging technique to fabricate supported lipid bilayers (SLBs). While successful SLB fabrication has been demonstrated and some mechanistic understanding of bicelle-mediated SLB formation gained, numerous other aspects remain to be understood. …”

Integrating carbon nanotubes and lipid bilayer for biosensing by Huang, Yinxi, Palkar, Preeti Vikas, Li, Lain-Jong, Zhang, Hua, Chen, Peng

“…Here, we have developed a novel system by integrating artificial lipid bilayer (biomimetic membrane) with single-walled carbon nanotube networks (SWNT-net) based field-effect transistor (FET), and demonstrated that such hybrid nanoelectronic biosensors can specifically and electronically detect the presence and dynamic activities of ionophores (specifically, gramicidin and calcimycin) in their native lipid environment. …”

DNA and lipid bilayers: self-assembly and insertion. by Khalid, S, Bond, P, Holyoake, J, Hawtin, R, Sansom, MS

“…To gain insight into the interactions of DNA with zwitterionic and cationic (dimyristoyltrimethylammonium propane (DMTAP)) lipids, we have used coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations to study the self-assembly of DPPC and DPPC/DMTAP lipid bilayers in the presence of a DNA dodecamer. We observed the spontaneous formation of lipid bilayers from initial systems containing randomly placed lipids, water-counterions and DNA. …”

Distribution and dynamics of adamantanes in a lipid bilayer. by Chew, C, Guy, A, Biggin, P

“…An understanding of how these compounds interact with the lipid bilayer is thus of great interest. We used molecular-dynamics simulations to calculate the potential of mean force of adamantanes in a lipid bilayer. …”

Functional regulation of aquaporin dynamics by lipid bilayer composition by Anh T. P. Nguyen, Austin T. Weigle, Diwakar Shukla

“…Abstract With the diversity of lipid-protein interactions, any observed membrane protein dynamics or functions directly depend on the lipid bilayer selection. However, the implications of lipid bilayer choice are seldom considered unless characteristic lipid-protein interactions have been previously reported. …”
