Breakdown of the Nernst-Einstein relation in carbon nanotube porins

Zhongwu Li et al.

Summary: Experimental measurements and molecular dynamics simulations show that the Nernst-Einstein relation breaks down in narrow carbon nanotube porins. K+ ion diffusion is three orders of magnitude slower in these channels due to the disintegration of water chains and the formation of K+-water clusters. This study reveals two distinct mechanisms for ion diffusion and electromigration, leading to the breakdown of the overall Nernst-Einstein relation.

Interaction of N-acyltaurines with phosphatidylcholines

Sukanya Arul Prakash et al.

Summary: N-acyltaurines (NATs) are biologically active amphiphilic lipids, which belong to the group of compounds known as N-acyl amino acids. They are mainly found in the brain and other tissues of mice lacking the enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase FAAH (-/-). N-arachidonoyltaurine (20:4 NAT) acts as a ligand for specific TRP channels, especially TRPV1 and TRPV4. The hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions of NATs enable them to interact with membrane lipids.

Lipid packing in biological membranes governs protein localization and membrane permeability

Madhusmita Tripathy et al.

Summary: This study investigates the spatial and dynamic heterogeneity in mixed phase membranes and explores the relationship between membrane order, packing defects, and membrane functions. The results suggest that heterogeneity in mixed phase membranes arises from local lipid topology and its temporal evolution, leading to distinct packing and distribution of free volume in ordered and disordered domains. These packing-related basic design principles closely govern the membrane functions such as protein localization and small molecule permeability.

Physiological changes in bilayer thickness induced by cholesterol control GPCR rhodopsin function

Olivier Soubias et al.

Summary: We investigated the influence of cholesterol-induced changes in bilayer thickness on the function of G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) rhodopsin. The equilibrium between metarhodopsin-I (MI) and metarhodopsin-II (MII) was monitored using UV-visible spectroscopy, and the ordering of hydrocarbon chains was probed using 2H-NMR. Addition of cholesterol shifted the equilibrium towards MII for thinner bilayers and towards MI for thicker bilayers, and small changes in bilayer thickness within the protein hydrophobic thickness range had drastic effects on MII formation. The interplay between bilayer and protein thickness, induced by cholesterol, resulted in significant swings of the MI-MII equilibrium in membranes of physiological thickness.

The Effect of Cholesterol in SOPC Lipid Bilayers at Low Temperatures

Nikoleta Ivanova et al.

Summary: We investigate the behavior of lipid bilayers containing different concentrations of cholesterol. Through molecular dynamics simulations, we calculate various properties and characteristics of the bilayers and compare the results with experimental data and simulations of similar phospholipid bilayers. Our findings show a good agreement in both quantitative and qualitative aspects with the effects of increasing cholesterol concentration. At a concentration of approximately 30 mol% cholesterol, a change in bilayer behavior occurs, with certain properties reaching saturation and a significant long-range ordering of lipid molecules in the membrane.

Yeast cells actively tune their membranes to phase separate at temperatures that scale with growth temperatures

Chantelle L. Leveille et al.

Summary: Membrane phase separation in vacuoles of budding yeast during the cell's growth cycle is regulated by physical conditions and is essential for yeast survival. The transition temperature of phase separation is adapted by cells to maintain proximity to the transition. Depletion of ergosterol, the major sterol in yeast, leads to the formation of membrane domains, contradicting previous assumptions.

EPA and DHA differentially modulate membrane elasticity in the presence of cholesterol

Miranda L. Jacobs et al.

Summary: Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are hypothesized to modulate protein activity by indirectly altering membrane physical properties, with the membrane area expansion modulus (K-a) being a significant controller of channel activity. PUFAs generally decrease the apparent K-a (K-app) of membranes, and in membranes with high levels of cholesterol, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) has a greater impact on reducing K-app compared to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). This study suggests that membrane phase behavior and the distribution of membrane-elasticizing amphiphiles affect the ability of a membrane to stretch.

Collective dynamics in lipid membranes containing transmembrane peptides

Summary: Biological membranes are composed of lipid and protein mixtures that influence each other's structure and function. The activities of channel-forming peptides and proteins depend on lipid bilayer properties, but how membrane-spanning channels affect lipid bilayer properties is less understood. This study found that peptides had different effects on the collective membrane dynamics, with some peptides stiffening the membrane while others softened it, highlighting the complex interplay between lipids and proteins in determining membrane dynamics.
