Lipid distribution and transport across cellular membranes.
In eukaryotic cells, the membranes of different intracellular organelles have different lipid composition, and various biomembranes show an asymmetric distribution of lipid types across the membrane bilayer. Membrane lipid organization reflects a dynamic equilibrium of lipids moving across the bilayer in both directions. In this review, we summarize data supporting the role of specific membrane...
متن کاملAn effect of antibiotic amphotericin B on ion transport across model lipid membranes and tonoplast membranes.
A pH sensitive fluorescence probe piranine trisulfonate, entrapped inside small unilamellar liposomes formed with egg yolk phosphatidylcholine, was applied to investigate effect of polyene antibiotic amphotericin B (AmB) on proton transport across lipid membranes. Time dependencies of fluorescence-monitored pH changes inside lipid vesicles, upon sudden acidification of the liposome suspension, ...
متن کاملThe role of lipophilicity in transmembrane anion transport.
The transmembrane anion transport activity of a series of synthetic molecules inspired by the structure of tambjamine alkaloids can be tuned by varying the lipophilicity of the receptor, with carriers within a certain log P range performing best.
متن کاملStudy the Transport Properties of Anion and Cation Exchange Membranes toward Various Ions Using Chronopotentiometry
The transport properties of various anion and cation exchange membranes were studied in different electrolyte solutions using chronopotentiometry technique to get insight about the influence of the counter ion on the transport properties of the membranes. The investigated samples include heterogeneous ion exchange membranes varying in the functionality of fixed charged gro...
متن کاملQuantitative visualization of passive transport across bilayer lipid membranes.
The ability to predict and interpret membrane permeation coefficients is of critical importance, particularly because passive transport is crucial for the effective delivery of many pharmaceutical agents to intracellular targets. We present a method for the quantitative measurement of the permeation coefficients of protonophores by using laser confocal scanning microscopy coupled to microelectr...
