Phase behavior of lipid bilayers under tension.

Given the proposed importance of membrane tension in regulating cellular functions, we explore the effects of a finite surface tension on phase equilibrium using a molecular theory that captures the quantitative structure of the phase diagram of the tensionless DPPC/DOPC/Cholesterol lipid bilayer. We find that an increase in the surface tension decreases the temperature of the transition from l...

Phase behavior of model lipid bilayers.

We investigated the phase behavior of double-tail lipids, as a function of temperature, headgroup interaction and tail length. At low values of the head-head repulsion parameter a(hh), the bilayer undergoes with increasing temperature the transitions from the subgel phase L(c) via the flat gel phase L(beta) to the fluid phase L(alpha). For higher values of a(hh), the transition from the L(c) to...

High pressure effect on phase transition behavior of lipid bilayers.

Phase behavior of lipid bilayers at high pressure is critical to biological processes. Using coarse grained molecular dynamic simulations, we report critical characteristics of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine bilayers with applied high pressure, and also show their phase transition by cooling bilayer patches. Our results indicate that the phase transition temperature of dipalmitoylphosphatidylch...
