Cell adhesion through clustered ligand on fluid supported lipid bilayers.
The quartz crystal microbalance technique with dissipation monitoring and the complementary optical microscopy technique were used for monitoring cell adhesion on an RGD-functionalized supported lipid bilayer. A critical interligand RGD spacing of nearly 80 nm was estimated for cell adhesion when an RGD spacing of 10 nm was necessary to observe flattened cells on a fluid surface.
متن کاملPermeation of bacterial cells, permeation of cytoplasmic and artificial membrane vesicles, and channel formation on lipid bilayers by peptide antibiotic AS-48.
Peptide AS-48 induces ion permeation, which is accompanied by the collapse of the cytoplasmic membrane potential, in sensitive bacteria. Active transport by cytoplasmic membrane vesicles is also impaired by AS-48. At low concentrations, this peptide also causes permeability of liposomes to low-molecular-weight compounds without a requirement for a membrane potential. Higher antibiotic concentra...
متن کاملArrays of mobile tethered vesicles on supported lipid bilayers.
We report a new system of laterally mobile, arrayed vesicles that are encoded with DNA to control tethering to fluid-supported phospholipid bilayers. The motion of individual fluorescently labeled vesicles, specifically bound, are easily visualized by fluorescence video microscopy and observed to collide reversibly on the surface. This system is an ideal model for studying interactions involvin...
متن کاملPermeation of the three aromatic dipeptides through lipid bilayers: Experimental and computational study.
The time-resolved parallel artificial membrane permeability assay with fluorescence detection and comprehensive computer simulations are used to study the passive permeation of three aromatic dipeptides-N-acetyl-phenylalanineamide (NAFA), N-acetyltyrosineamide (NAYA), and N-acetyl-tryptophanamide (NATA) through a 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospocholine (DOPC) lipid bilayer. Measured permeation ...
متن کاملSpontaneous Expulsion of Giant Lipid Vesicles Induced by Laser Tweezers
Irradiation of a giant unilamellar lipid bilayer vesicle with a focused laser spot leads to a tense pressurized state which persists indefinitely after laser shutoff. If the vesicle contains another object it can then be gently and continuously expelled from the tense outer vesicle. Remarkably, the inner object can be almost as large as the parent vesicle; its volume is replaced during the exit...
