General model of phospholipid bilayers in fluid phase within the single chain mean field theory
Yachong Guo, Sergey Pogodin, Vladimir A. Baulin
Coarse-grained model for saturated (DCPC, DLPC, DMPC, DPPC, DSPC) and unsaturated (POPC, DOPC) phospholipids is introduced within the Single Chain Mean Field theory. A single set o…
Surface patterning of carbon nanotubes can enhance their penetration through a phospholipid bilayer
Sergey Pogodin, Nigel K. H. Slater, Vladimir A. Baulin
Nanotube patterning may occur naturally upon the spontaneous self-assembly of biomolecules onto the surface of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). It results in periodically al…
Biomolecule surface patterning may enhance membrane association
Sergey Pogodin, Nigel K. H. Slater, Vladimir A. Baulin
Under dehydration conditions, amphipathic Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) proteins fold spontaneously from a random conformation into alpha-helical structures and this transition…
Equilibrium insertion of nanoscale objects into phospholipid bilayers
Sergey Pogodin, Vladimir A. Baulin
Certain membrane proteins, peptides, nanoparticles and nanotubes have rigid structure and fixed shape. They are often viewed as spheres and cylinders with certain surface propertie…
Can a Carbon Nanotube Pierce through a Phospholipid Bilayer?
Sergey Pogodin, Vladimir A. Baulin
Great efficiency to penetrate into living cells is attributed to carbon nanotubes due to a number of direct and indirect observations of carbon nanotubes inside the cells. However,…
Coarse-Grained Models of Biological Membranes within the Single Chain Mean Field Theory
Sergey Pogodin, Vladimir A. Baulin
The Single Chain Mean Field theory is used to simulate the equilibrium structure of phospholipid membranes at the molecular level. Three levels of coarse-graining of DMPC phospholi…
