Proteo-lipobeads for the oriented encapsulation of membrane proteins.
نویسندگان
چکیده
As a surrogate of live cells, proteo-lipobeads are presented, encapsulating functional membrane proteins in a strict orientation into a lipid bilayer. Assays can be performed just as on live cells, for example using fluorescence measurements. As a proof of concept, we have demonstrated proton transport through cytochrome c oxidase.

Biomimetic Membranes for Multi-Redox Center Proteins.
His-tag technology was applied for biosensing purposes involving multi-redox center proteins (MRPs). An overview is presented on various surfaces ranging from flat to spherical and modified with linker molecules with nitrile-tri-acetic acid (NTA) terminal groups to bind his-tagged proteins in a strict orientation. The bound proteins are submitted to in situ dialysis in the presence of lipid mic...

The hydrophobic proteins of plant plasma membrane still remain largely unknown. For example in the Arabidopsis genome, receptor-like kinases (RLKs) are plasma membrane proteins, functioning as the primary receptors in the signaling of stress conditions, hormones and the presence of pathogens form a diverse family of over 610 genes. A limited number of these proteins have appeard in pr...

Background and Objectives: Encapsulation is a process; by which, a susceptible compound is surrounded with a membrane or matrix that is able to release its contents at a controlled speed under certain conditions. In recent years, popularity of adding bioactive compounds to food products has increased. These compounds are usually sensitive to environmental, processing and/or gastrointestinal con...
متن کاملPex11mediates peroxisomal proliferation by promoting deformation of the lipid membrane
Pex11p family proteins are key players in peroxisomal fission, but their molecular mechanisms remains mostly unknown. In the present study, overexpression of Pex11pβ caused substantial vesiculation of peroxisomes in mammalian cells. This vesicle formation was dependent on dynamin-like protein 1 (DLP1) and mitochondrial fission factor (Mff), as knockdown of these proteins diminished peroxisomal ...
متن کاملLipobeads as Drug Delivery Systems
A relatively new type of nanoparticles – lipobeads – a liposome-hydrogel assembly is a novel drug delivery system. Due to their bi-compartmental structure, lipobeads are of great potential for application as drug carriers with high therapeutic efficiency. It was shown that aggregation of lipobeads and its reversibility can be controlled by the hydrophobic modification of nanogels and their ther...
