How lipid asymmetry can make vesicles fusion-competent by inhibition of the thermal undulations.
Introduction The first step in any fusion event involving biological membranes or liposomes is the close contact between the two lipid bilayers. Hefore the local collapse which gives rise to a single membrane from two membranes, the two phospholipid interfaces have to approach each other. Different interacting forces are involved. Van der Waals forces are attractive and can extend to distance o...
متن کاملsuppression of coke formation in thermal cracking by coke inhibitors
the main purpose of this research was to:1.develop a coking model for thermal cracking of naphtha.2.study coke inhibition methods using different coke inhibitors.developing a coking model in naphtha cracking reactors requires a suitable model of the thermal cracking reactor based on a reliable kinetic model.to obtain reliable results all these models shall be solved simultaneously.for this pu...
15 صفحه اولThermal undulations of lipid bilayers relax by intermonolayer friction at submicrometer length scales.
The time correlation functions of the thermal undulations of a lipid membrane have been studied by molecular dynamics simulations of a coarse-grained bilayer model. We observe a double-exponential decay, with relaxation rates in good agreement with the theory by Seifert and Langer, [Europhys. Lett. 23, 71 (1993)]. Intermonolayer friction resulting from local velocity differences between the two...
متن کاملthe present study is a survey os postmodern historical novel with respect to the voice of women. it argues how the recorded history is regulated by the rules of power and how women have been excluded from this discourse.ther study analysez angela carters nights at the circus as an example of postmodern historical novel to illustrate how this novel has questioned the historical narrative and how it has inserted women into history by breaking the rules of patriarchy.
the present thesis is a study of postmodern historical novel with respect to the voice of women. according to postmodern historiography,the established institution of history is one of the other manifestations of patriarchys power which has silenced women. the study analyzes angela carters nights at the circus as a postmodern historical novel which makes its female characters transgress the pat...
15 صفحه اولInfluence of phospholipid asymmetry on fusion between large unilamellar vesicles.
The ability of lipid asymmetry to regulate Ca(2+)-stimulated fusion between large unilamellar vesicles has been investigated. It is shown that for 100-nm-diameter LUVs composed of dioleoylphosphatidylcholine, dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, and dioleoylphosphatidic acid (DOPC/DOPE/PI/DOPA; 25:60:5:10) rapid and essentially complete fusion is observed by fluorescent reson...
