Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular dynamics simulations of a fluid bilayer of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine at full hydration, constant pressure, and constant temperature.
TL;DR: Molecular dynamics simulations were performed on a system consisting of a bilayer of 64 molecules of the lipid dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine and 23 water molecules per lipid to reproduce the correct density and to give a proper estimate of the area per lipid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Models for the structure of outer-membrane proteins of Escherichia coli derived from Raman spectroscopy and prediction methods
Horst Vogel,Fritz Jähnig +1 more
TL;DR: Folding models are developed for porin and for the segment of OmpA protein incorporated into the membrane that consists of eight amphipathic membrane-spanning beta-strands that form a beta-barrel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural order of lipids and proteins in membranes: evaluation of fluorescence anisotropy data
TL;DR: It is concluded that proteins increase the order of the surrounding lipids in off-normal directions with respect to the influence of lipid order on protein order.
Journal ArticleDOI
The structure of melittin in membranes.
Horst Vogel,Fritz Jähnig +1 more
TL;DR: Fluorescence quenching experiments on residue Trp19 reveal that all COOH-termini are located on that side of a vesicular membrane to which melittin was added, and this and previous results on the location and orientation ofmelittin permit the development of a model for the structure of melittIn tetramers in membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipid vesicle adsorption versus formation of planar bilayers on solid surfaces
TL;DR: The absorption and spreading behavior of lipid vesicles composed of either palmitoyloleoylphosphatidylcholine (POPC) or Escherichia coli lipid upon contact with a glass surface was examined, and supported planar bilayers were found to be permeable for small molecules, whereas supported vesicle layers were impermeable and thus represented immobilized, topologically separate compartments.
