Membrane Protein Structure
Membrane proteins reside in a highly asymmetric environment compared to their cytosolic counterparts which gives them unique properties. Rather than being in a homogeneous aqueous solvent, the "solvent" that surrounds membrane proteins consists of the aqueous region outside the membrane, the ionic region of the membrane surface and the oily region of the membrane interior. These differing diele...
متن کاملFouling mechanisms during protein microfiltration: The effects of protein structure and filtration pressure on polypropylene microporous membrane performance
A polypropylene microporous membrane (PPMM) was fabricated by thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) method. The effects of protein size and structure as well as filtration pressure on the membrane performance and fouling mechanisms were investigated using two different proteins, bovine serum albumin (BSA) and collagen, in dead-end filtration setup. Obtained results showed that, for each pro...
متن کاملMembrane protein folding and stability: physical principles.
Stably folded membrane proteins reside in a free energy minimum determined by the interactions of the peptide chains with each other, the lipid bilayer hydrocarbon core, the bilayer interface, and with water. The prediction of three-dimensional structure from sequence requires a detailed understanding of these interactions. Progress toward this objective is summarized in this review by means of...
متن کاملProtein-protein interaction and quaternary structure.
Protein-protein recognition plays an essential role in structure and function. Specific non-covalent interactions stabilize the structure of macromolecular assemblies, exemplified in this review by oligomeric proteins and the capsids of icosahedral viruses. They also allow proteins to form complexes that have a very wide range of stability and lifetimes and are involved in all cellular processe...
متن کاملContinuum Electromechanical Modeling of Protein-Membrane Interaction
A continuum electromechanical model is proposed to describe the membrane curvature induced by electrostatic interactions in a solvated protein-membrane system. The model couples the macroscopic strain energy of membrane and the electrostatic solvation energy of the system, and equilibrium membrane deformation is obtained by minimizing the electro-elastic energy functional with respect to the di...
