The Fluid Mosaic Model of the Structure of Cell Membranes
A fluid mosaic model is presented for the gross organization and structure of the proteins and lipids of biological membranes. The model is consistent with the restrictions impo...
Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Membranes Composed of Glycolipids and Phospholipids
Lipid membranes composed of 1,2-di-(9Z,12Z,15Z)-octadecatrienoyl-3-O-β-D-galactosyl-sn-glycerol or monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG) and 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoch...
Interactions between saturated acyl chains confer detergent resistance on lipids and glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins: GPI-anchored proteins in liposomes and cells show similar behavior.
Proteins anchored by GPI are poorly solubilized from cell membranes by cold nonionic detergents because they associate with detergent-resistant membranes rich in cholesterol and...
The structure of interfaces between subunits of dimeric and tetrameric proteins
The structures of the interfaces of nine dimeric and nine tetrameric proteins have been analyzed and have been seen to follow general principles. These interfaces are combinatio...
Optimized Molecular Dynamics Force Fields Applied to the Helix−Coil Transition of Polypeptides
Obtaining the correct balance of secondary structure propensities is a central priority in protein force-field development. Given that current force fields differ significantly ...
