Molecular dynamics simulations of mixed acidic/zwitterionic phospholipid bilayers.
Anionic lipids are key components in the cell membranes. Many cell-regulatory and signaling mechanisms depend upon a complicated interplay between them and membrane-bound proteins. Phospholipid bilayers are commonly used as model systems in experimental or theoretical studies to gain insight into the structure and dynamics of biological membranes. We report here 200-ns-long MD simulations of pu...
متن کاملInteraction of the antiarrhythmic drug procainamide with phospholipid bilayers.
Several hypotheses link the molecular mechanism of action of the antiarrhythmic drugs (AAD) that belong to class I to non-specific interactions with phospholipids sited in the neighborhood of sodium channels in the membrane of the myocardium. Procainamide (PROC), one of the least lipophilic drugs of this group, was induced to interact with bilayers of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and d...
متن کاملInteraction of the organochlorine pesticide dieldrin with phospholipid bilayers.
Dieldrin is an organochlorine insecticide highly toxic for human beings. Although its exact mechanism of action is not well known, there is evidence that it acts at the cell membrane level. In fact, the lipophilicity of the pesticide as well as that of the phospholipid bilayer present in biological membranes makes the latter a most likely target for the interaction of dieldrin with living organ...
متن کاملInteraction of the anticancer agent Taxol (paclitaxel) with phospholipid bilayers.
Taxol (paclitaxel), a promising agent for use in ovarian and breast cancer, was incorporated into lipid vesicles (liposomes) composed of different saturated and unsaturated phosphatidylcholines, as well as saturated phosphatidylcholines mixed with the anionic phospholipid 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylserine (DMPS) at different molar ratios, to yield information about Taxol-liposome ...
متن کاملSpecific RNA binding to ordered phospholipid bilayers
We have studied RNA binding to vesicles bounded by ordered and disordered phospholipid membranes. A positive correlation exists between bilayer order and RNA affinity. In particular, structure-dependent RNA binding appears for rafted (liquid-ordered) domains in sphingomyelin-cholesterol-1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine vesicles. Binding to more highly ordered gel phase membranes is stro...
