Polydopamine-Supported Lipid Bilayers
We report the formation of lipid membranes supported by a soft polymeric cushion of polydopamine. First, 20 nm thick polydopamine films were formed on mica substrates. Atomic force microscopy imaging indicated that these films were also soft with a surface roughness of 2 nm under hydrated conditions. A zwitterionic phospholipid bilayer was then deposited on the polydopamine cushion by fusion of...
متن کاملTitration force microscopy on supported lipid bilayers.
The use of chemically modified atomic force microscopy (AFM) probes allows us to measure the surface charges of supported planar lipid bilayers with high sensitivity through the force spectroscopy operation mode. By controlling the chemistry of the tip, we can perform a classical analytical chemistry titration where the titration agent is a weak acid (attached to the AFM tip) with the particula...
متن کاملCell 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 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 کاملSelf-assembly of filopodia-like structures on supported lipid bilayers.
Filopodia are finger-like protrusive structures, containing actin bundles. By incubating frog egg extracts with supported lipid bilayers containing phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate, we have reconstituted the assembly of filopodia-like structures (FLSs). The actin assembles into parallel bundles, and known filopodial components localize to the tip and shaft. The filopodia tip complexes self...
