Digital holographic microscopy of phase separation in multicomponent lipid membranes.

Lateral in-homogeneities in lipid compositions cause microdomains formation and change in the physical properties of biological membranes. With the presence of cholesterol and mixed species of lipids, phospholipid membranes segregate into lateral domains of liquid-ordered and liquid-disordered phases. Coupling of two-dimensional intralayer phase separations and interlayer liquid-crystalline ord...

Thermal Stability of Phase-Separated Domains in Multicomponent Lipid Membranes with Local Anesthetics

The functional mechanisms of local anesthetics (LAs) have not yet been fully explained, despite their importance in modern medicine. Recently, an indirect interaction between channel proteins and LAs was proposed as follows: LAs alter the physical properties of lipid membranes, thus affecting the channel proteins. To examine this hypothesis, we investigated changes in thermal stability in lipid...

Phase separation in lipid membranes.

Cell membranes show complex behavior, in part because of the large number of different components that interact with each other in different ways. One aspect of this complex behavior is lateral organization of components on a range of spatial scales. We found that lipid-only mixtures can model the range of size scales, from approximately 2 nm up to microns. Furthermore, the size of compositiona...

Phase Transitions in Lipid Membranes

The seminar treats phase transitions in lipid membranes, with the focus on the main lipid bilayer phase transition. It reveals the microscopic picture and reviews the key factors leading to the presented phenomena. A general discussion on models is made and some concrete examples are presented in more detail. Finally, experimental approaches to study the phase behavior of lipid membranes are di...

Two-Point Microrheology of Phase-Separated Domains in Lipid Bilayers.

Though the importance of membrane fluidity for cellular function has been well established for decades, methods for measuring lipid bilayer viscosity remain challenging to devise and implement. Recently, approaches based on characterizing the Brownian dynamics of individual tracers such as colloidal particles or lipid domains have provided insights into bilayer viscosity. For fluids in general,...
