Differential adhesion of microspheres mediated by DNA hybridization I: experiment.
We have developed a novel method to study collective behavior of multiple hybridized DNA chains by measuring the adhesion of DNA-coated micron-scale beads under hydrodynamic flow. Beads coated with single-stranded DNA probes are linked to surfaces coated with single target strands through DNA hybridization, and hydrodynamic shear forces are used to discriminate between strongly and weakly bound...
متن کاملMechanisms of Surface-Mediated DNA Hybridization
Single-molecule total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy was employed in conjunction with resonance energy transfer (RET) to observe the dynamic behavior of donor-labeled ssDNA at the interface between aqueous solution and a solid surface decorated with complementary acceptor-labeled ssDNA. At least 100,000 molecular trajectories were determined for both complementary strands and negat...
متن کاملMembrane-Mediated Inter-Domain Interactions
The amazing ability of living cells in achieving strict and robust control of their membrane morphologies and functions over different length scales leads to the concept that membrane domains, such as lipid rafts, are the basic organization units of cellular membranes. Yet fundamental understanding of the membrane-mediated interdomain interaction still remains incomplete. In the present work, w...
متن کاملHeterogeneity of interactions mediated by membrane glycoproteins of lymphocytes.
Introduction About 150 different proteins and glycoproteins have been characterized on the surface of various leucocyte populations that are not widely expressed on other cell types [l]. These proteins are candidates for mediation of the many functions that depend on interactions at the leucocyte surface. With regard to lymphocytes, the types of functions that can be expected involve receptors ...
متن کاملMembrane composition-mediated protein-protein interactions.
The authors investigate membrane composition-mediated interactions between proteins adsorbed onto a two-component lipid bilayer close to critical demixing using coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations and a phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau theory. The simulations consist of three-bead lipids and platelike proteins, which adsorb onto the membrane by binding preferentially to one of the two...
