Chlorophyll a self-assembly in polar solvent-water mixtures.
The conversion of chlorophyll a (Chl a) monomers into large aggregates in six polar solvents upon addition of water has been studied by means of absorption, fluorescence spectroscopy and fluorescence lifetime measurements for the purpose of elucidating the various environmental factors promoting Chl a self-assembly and determining the type of its organization. Two empirical solvent parameter sc...
متن کاملSelf-Assembly in Mixtures of Polymers and Small Associating Molecules
The interaction between a flexible polymer in a good solvent and smaller associating solute molecules such as amphiphiles (surfactants) is considered theoretically. Attractive correlations, induced in the polymer because of the interaction, compete with intra-chain repulsion and eventually drive a joint self-assembly of the two species, accompanied by partial collapse of the chain. Results of t...
متن کاملSelf-assembly in mixtures of amphiphilic polymers and surfactants
– We present a model for the joint self-assembly of amphiphilic polymers and small amphiphilic molecules (surfactants) in a dilute aqueous solution. The polymer is assumed to consist of a hydrophilic backbone and a large number of hydrophobic side groups. Preference of the surfactant to bind to hydrophobic microdomains along the polymer induces an effective attraction between bound surfactants....
متن کاملSelf-assembly of class II hydrophobins on highly polar surfaces
Hydrophobins, adhesive proteins produced by filamentous fungi, have been described as the most surface active proteins known and show extraordinary properties regarding formation of surfaces. Hydrophobins have roles in the growth and development of the fungi including function in adhesion to surfaces, reducing surface tension for aerial growth and spore hydrophobicity and to aid spreading of ae...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of class II hydrophobins on polar surfaces.
Hydrophobins are structural proteins produced by filamentous fungi that are amphiphilic and function through self-assembling into structures such as membranes. They have diverse roles in the growth and development of fungi, for example in adhesion to substrates, for reducing surface tension to allow aerial growth, in forming protective coatings on spores and other structures. Hydrophobin membra...
