Area per Lipid in DPPC-Cholesterol Bilayers:Analytical Approach
B. B. Kheyfets, S. I. Mukhin
Area per molecule in a DPPC-Cholesterol bilayers depends non-linearly on the cholesterol concentration. Using flexible strings model of lipid membranes we calculate area per molecu…
Analytical derivation of lateral pressure profile from microscopic model of lipid bilayer
Sergei I. Mukhin, Svetlana V. Baoukina
Field-theoretical method is proposed, that yields analytical expression for lateral pressure distribution across hydrophobic core of a bilayer lipid membrane. Lipid molecule, repel…
Bilayer Membrane in Confined Geometry: Interlayer Slide and Steric Repulsion
S. V. Baoukina, S. I. Mukhin
We derived free energy functional of a bilayer lipid membrane from the first principles of elasticity theory. The model explicitly includes position-dependent mutual slide of monol…
Inter-layer slide and stress relaxation in a bilayer fluid membrane in the patch-clamp setting
Sergei I. Mukhin, Svetlana V. Baoukina
Protein mechanosensitive channels (MS) are activated by tension transmitted through the lipid bilayer. We propose a theory of lateral stress relaxation in a bilayer lipid membrane…
Lipids diffusion mechanism of stress relaxation in a bilayer fluid membrane under pressure
S. I. Mukhin, S. V. Baoukina
A theory of a lateral stress relaxation in a fluid bilayer membrane under a step-like pressure pulse is proposed. It is shown theoretically that transfer of lipid molecules into a…
