DNA interaction with freestanding cationic lipid bilayers
We study the interaction of ds-DNA molecules with freestanding and supported cationic lipid bilayers. DNA fragments of different lengths (5, 10, 20, and 48 kbp) were adsorbed on lipid membranes consiting mainly of zwitterionic DOPC with added fractions of cationic DOTAP (1...10 %). Freestanding bilayers were modeled using giant unilamellar vesicles of sizes >100 μm. Supported lipid bilayers wer...
متن کاملInteraction of Daptomycin with Lipid Bilayers: A Lipid Extracting Effect
Daptomycin is the first approved member of a new structural class of antibiotics, the cyclic lipopeptides. The peptide interacts with the lipid matrix of cell membranes, inducing permeability of the membrane to ions, but its molecular mechanism has been a puzzle. Unlike the ubiquitous membrane-acting host-defense antimicrobial peptides, daptomycin does not induce pores in the cell membranes. Th...
متن کاملInteraction of the lantibiotic nisin with mixed lipid bilayers: a 31P and 2H NMR study.
Nisin is a positively charged antibacterial peptide which binds to the negatively charged membranes of Gram-positive bacteria. The initial interaction of the peptide with model membranes of neutral (phosphatidylcholine) and negatively charged (phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylglycerol) model lipid membranes was studied using nonperturbing solid state magic angle spinning (MAS) (31)P NMR and (2)H...
متن کاملPressure-induced ordering in mixed-lipid bilayers.
Isothermal application of hydrostatic pressure to liquid crystalline phospholipid bilayers increases chain segment orientational order and thus chain extension. By using pressure to perturb chain order in single-component bilayers and bilayers comprising a binary mixture of lipids, it is possible to compare the relative influences of intrinsic lipid properties and collective bilayer properties ...
متن کاملInteraction of tea catechin (-)-epigallocatechin gallate with lipid bilayers.
A major component of green tea extracts, catechin (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg), has been reported to be biologically active and interacting with membranes. A recent study reported drastic effects of EGCg on giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs). In particular, EGCg above 30 microM caused GUVs to burst. Here we investigated the effect of EGCg on single GUVs at lower concentrations, believing ...
