Structure of the integrin beta3 transmembrane segment in phospholipid bicelles and detergent micelles.
Integrin adhesion receptors transduce bidirectional signals across the plasma membrane, with the integrin transmembrane domains acting as conduits in this process. Here, we report the first high-resolution structure of an integrin transmembrane domain. To assess the influence of the membrane model system, structure determinations of the beta3 integrin transmembrane segment and flanking sequence...
متن کاملBicosomes: bicelles in dilute systems.
Bicelles are discoidal phospholipid nanostructures at high lipid concentrations. Under dilute conditions, bicelles become larger and adopt a variety of morphologies. This work proposes a strategy to preserve the discoidal morphology of bicelles in environments with high water content. Bicelles were formed in concentrated conditions and subsequently encapsulated in liposomes. Later dilution of t...
متن کاملThe Application of Isotropic Bicelles as Model Membranes
2 Cover illustration: An α-helix structure is induced in the peptide hormone motilin upon binding to a bicelle Doctoral thesis in Biophysics Abstract Isotropic bicelles are disc-shaped aggregates of lipids and detergents, and are suitable model systems for high-resolution NMR studies of membrane-interacting peptides. In this thesis the structures for the two peptides motilin and transportan wer...
متن کاملVHDL-based simulation environment for Proteo NoC
The purpose of this paper is to present the work that has been carried out for the creation of a simulation environment of our Network-on-Chip (NoC) architecture, called "Proteo". In an Intellectual Property (IP) based design methodology also the interconnection structures may be treated as IPs. The Proteo project is aimed at creating a library of pre-designed communication blocks that can be s...
متن کاملReinvestigation by phosphorus NMR of lipid distribution in bicelles.
Mixtures of dimyristoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and dihexanoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DHPC) in water form disks also called bicelles and different bilayer organizations when the mol ratio of the two lipids and the temperature are varied. The spontaneous alignment in a magnetic field of these bilayers above the transition temperature T(m) of DMPC is an attractive property that was successfully ...
