چکیده

We report a facile solution process to synthesize monodisperse porous nanodiscs through confined molecular self-assembly of surfactants and ZnTPyP. The nanodiscs exhibit trimodal pores with fluorescent and crystalline wall structures, and are potentially important for sorption and separation, sensors, catalytic materials, electrode materials, etc.

Chapter 11 - Reconstitution of membrane proteins in phospholipid bilayer nanodiscs.

Self-assembled phospholipid bilayer Nanodiscs have become an important and versatile tool among model membrane systems to functionally reconstitute membrane proteins. Nanodiscs consist of lipid domains encased within an engineered derivative of apolipoprotein A-1 scaffold proteins, which can be tailored to yield homogeneous preparations of disks with different diameters, and with epitope tags f...

Polymer nanotubes by wetting of ordered porous templates.

We have developed a simple technique for the fabrication of polymer nanotubes with a monodisperse size distribution and uniform orientation. When either a polymer melt or solution is placed on a substrate with high surface energy, it will spread to form a thin film, known as a precursor film, similar to the behavior of low molar mass liquids (1, 2). Similar wetting phenomena occur if porous tem...

Monodisperse, high refractive index, highly charged ZnS colloids self assemble into crystalline colloidal arrays.

We developed an efficient synthesis of monodisperse, highly surface charged, high refractive index ZnS spherical particles by using a gel-sol method. Concentrated solutions of zinc-ammonia-NTA (nitrilotriacetic acid) were reacted with thioacetamide in the presence of gelatin which stabilized the growing particles. We dramatically increased the particle surface charge density by condensing silic...

Applications of phospholipid bilayer nanodiscs in the study of membranes and membrane proteins.

Phospholipid bilayer Nanodiscs are novel model membranes derived from high-density lipoprotein particles and have proven to be useful in studies of membrane proteins. Membrane protein enzymology has been hampered by the inherent insolubility of membrane proteins in aqueous environments and has necessitated the use of model membranes such as liposomes and detergent-stabilized micelles. Current m...

Conformational transitions in the membrane scaffold protein of phospholipid bilayer nanodiscs.

Phospholipid bilayer nanodiscs are model membrane systems that provide an environment where membrane proteins are highly stable and monodisperse without the use of detergents or liposomes. Nanodiscs consist of a discoidal phospholipid bilayer encircled by two copies of an amphipathic alpha helical membrane scaffold protein, which is modeled from apolipoprotein A-1. Hydrogen exchange mass spectr...
