  • (4,5)-Bisphosphate Destabilizes the Membrane of Giant Unilamellar Vesicles
    5112 Biophysical Journal Volume 96 June 2009 5112–5121 Profilin Interaction with Phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-Bisphosphate Destabilizes the Membrane of Giant Unilamellar Vesicles Kannan Krishnan,† Oliver Holub,‡ Enrico Gratton,‡ Andrew H. A. Clayton,§ Stephen Cody,§ and Pierre D. J. Moens†* †Centre for Bioactive Discovery in Health and Ageing, School of Science and Technology, University of New England, Armidale, Australia; ‡Laboratory for Fluorescence Dynamics, Department of Biomedical Engineering, University of California, Irvine, California; and §Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research, Royal Melbourne Hospital, Victoria, Australia ABSTRACT Profilin, a small cytoskeletal protein, and phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] have been implicated in cellular events that alter the cell morphology, such as endocytosis, cell motility, and formation of the cleavage furrow during cytokinesis. Profilin has been shown to interact with PI(4,5)P2, but the role of this interaction is still poorly understood. Using giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) as a simple model of the cell membrane, we investigated the interaction between profilin and PI(4,5)P2. A number and brightness analysis demonstrated that in the absence of profilin, molar ratios of PI(4,5)P2 above 4% result in lipid demixing and cluster formations. Furthermore, adding profilin to GUVs made with 1% PI(4,5)P2 leads to the forma- tion of clusters of both profilin and PI(4,5)P2. However, due to the self-quenching of the dipyrrometheneboron difluoride-labeled PI(4,5)P2, we were unable to determine the size of these clusters. Finally, we show that the formation of these clusters results in the destabilization and deformation of the GUV membrane.

  • Cholesterol in Condensed and Fluid Phosphatidylcholine Monolayers Studied by Epifluorescence Microscopy
    Biophysical Journal Volume 72 June 1997 2569-2580 2569 Cholesterol in Condensed and Fluid Phosphatidylcholine Monolayers Studied by Epifluorescence Microscopy Lynn-Ann D. Worthman,* Kaushik Nag,* Philip J. Davis,* and Kevin M. W. Keough*# *Department of Biochemistry and #Discipline of Pediatrics, Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John's, Newfoundland Al B 3X9, Canada ABSTRACT Epifluorescence microscopy was used to investigate the effect of cholesterol on monolayers of dipalmi- toylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and 1 -palmitoyl-2-oleoyl phosphatidylcholine (POPC) at 21 ± 20C using 1 mol% 1 -palmitoyl- 2-{1 2-[(7-nitro-2-1, 3-benzoxadizole-4-yl)amino]dodecanoyl}phosphatidylcholine (NBD-PC) as a fluorophore. Up to 30 mol% cholesterol in DPPC monolayers decreased the amounts of probe-excluded liquid-condensed (LC) phase at all surface pressures (ir), but did not effect the monolayers of POPC, which remained in the liquid-expanded (LE) phase at all 7r. At low (2-5 mN/m), 10 mol% or more cholesterol in DPPC induced a lateral phase separation into dark probe-excluded and light probe-rich regions. In POPC monolayers, phase separation was observed at low IT when .40 mol% or more cholesterol was present. The lateral phase separation observed with increased cholesterol concentrations in these lipid monolayers may be a result of the segregation of cholesterol-rich domains in ordered fluid phases that preferentially exclude the fluorescent probe. With increasing 7r, monolayers could be transformed from a heterogeneous dark and light appearance into a homogeneous fluorescent phase, in a manner that was dependent on ir and cholesterol content. The packing density of the acyl chains may be a determinant in the interaction of cholesterol with phosphatidylcholine (PC), because the transformations in monolayer surface texture were observed in phospholipid (PL)/sterol mixtures having similar molecular areas.

Foxglove (Digitalis purpurea L.) leaves are frequently confused with borage (Borago officinalis L.), which is traditionally used as a food ingredient. Due to the presence of the cardiac glycosides, mostly digitoxin, foxglove leaves are poisonous to human and may be fatal if ingested. A 55-year-old Caucasian woman complaining weakness, fatigue, nausea, and vomiting was admitted to the Emergency Department.

  • Chiral Supramolecular Architecture of Stable Transmembrane Pores
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Chiral supramolecular architecture of stable transmembrane pores formed by an α-helical antibiotic peptide in the presence of lyso- lipids Erik Strandberg1, David Bentz2, Parvesh Wadhwani1 & Anne S. Ulrich1,2* The amphipathic α-helical antimicrobial peptide MSI-103 (aka KIA21) can form stable transmembrane pores when the bilayer takes on a positive spontaneous curvature, e.g. by the addition of lyso-lipids. Solid-state 31P- and 15N-NMR demonstrated an enrichment of lyso-lipids in these toroidal wormholes. Anionic lyso-lipids provided additional stabilization by electrostatic interactions with the cationic peptides. The remaining lipid matrix did not afect the nature of the pore, as peptides maintained the same orientation independent of lipid charge, and a change in membrane thickness did not considerably afect their tilt angle. Under optimized conditions (i.e. in the presence of lyso-lipids and appropriate bilayer thickness), stable and well-aligned pores could be obtained for solid-state 2H-NMR analysis. These data revealed for the frst time the complete 3D alignment of this representative amphiphilic peptide in fuid membranes, which is compatible with either monomeric helices as constituents, or left- handed supercoiled dimers as building blocks from which the overall toroidal wormhole is assembled. Membrane-active antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) can kill microorganisms by permeabilizing the cell mem- brane. They are attracting much attention as potential new antibiotics against the increasingly common multidrug-resistant bacterial strains1–4. While it is clear that these peptides can target a wide range of microorgan- isms, the molecular mechanisms of membrane permeabilization are not yet fully characterized.

  • Effects of Antidepressants on the Conformation of Phospholipid Headgroups Studied by Solid-State NMR
    MAGNETIC RESONANCE IN CHEMISTRY Magn. Reson. Chem. 2004; 42: 105–114 Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com). DOI: 10.1002/mrc.1327 Effects of antidepressants on the conformation of phospholipid headgroups studied by solid-state NMR Jose S. Santos,1† Dong-Kuk Lee1,2 and Ayyalusamy Ramamoorthy1,2,3∗ 1 Biophysics Research Division, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-1055, USA 2 Department of Chemistry, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-1055, USA 3 Macromolecular Science and Engineering, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-1055, USA Received 10 June 2003; Revised 25 August 2003; Accepted 1 September 2003 The effect of tricyclic antidepressants (TCA) on phospholipid bilayer structure and dynamics was studied to provide insight into the mechanism of TCA-induced intracellular accumulation of lipids (known as lipidosis). Specifically we asked if the lipid–TCA interaction was TCA or lipid specific and if such physical interactions could contribute to lipidosis. These interactions were probed in multilamellar vesicles and mechanically oriented bilayers of mixed phosphatidylcholine–phosphatidylglycerol (PC–PG) phospholipids using 31Pand14N solid-state NMR techniques. Changes in bilayer architecture in the presence of TCAs were observed to be dependent on the TCA’s effective charge and steric constraints. The results further show that desipramine and imipramine evoke distinguishable changes on the membrane surface, particularly on the headgroup order, conformation and dynamics of phospholipids. Desipramine increases the disorder of the choline site at the phosphatidylcholine headgroup while leaving the conformation and dynamics of the phosphate region largely unchanged. Incorporation of imipramine changes both lipid headgroup conformation and dynamics.

  • Natural and Synthetic Saponins As Vaccine Adjuvants
    Review Natural and Synthetic Saponins as Vaccine Adjuvants Pengfei Wang Department of Chemistry, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL 35294, USA; [email protected] Abstract: Saponin adjuvants have been extensively studied for their use in veterinary and human vaccines. Among them, QS-21 stands out owing to its unique profile of immunostimulating activity, inducing a balanced Th1/Th2 immunity, which is valuable to a broad scope of applications in com- bating various microbial pathogens, cancers, and other diseases. It has recently been approved for use in human vaccines as a key component of combination adjuvants, e.g., AS01b in Shingrix® for herpes zoster. Despite its usefulness in research and clinic, the cellular and molecular mechanisms of QS-21 and other saponin adjuvants are poorly understood. Extensive efforts have been devoted to studies for understanding the mechanisms of QS-21 in different formulations and in different combi- nations with other adjuvants, and to medicinal chemistry studies for gaining mechanistic insights and development of practical alternatives to QS-21 that can circumvent its inherent drawbacks. In this review, we briefly summarize the current understandings of the mechanism underlying QS-21’s adjuvanticity and the encouraging results from recent structure-activity-relationship (SAR) studies. Keywords: adjuvant; saponin; mechanism; SAR; QS-21; VSA-1; VSA-2 1. Introduction Traditional vaccines are whole-organism-based, using live attenuated or inactivated Citation: Wang, P. Natural and viruses or bacteria. These vaccines are quite reactogenic due to the presence of numerous Synthetic Saponins as Vaccine pathogen-associated-molecular-patterns (PAMPs) that are responsible for activation, and Adjuvants.

The impact of cellulose-based materials on cells and, more specifically, on plasma membranes that surround cells, however, remains poorly understood. To this end, here we performed atomic-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) bilayers interacting with the surface of a cellulose crystal.

In this work, Langmuir monolayer techniques combined with Accepted 4 June 2015 polarization modulation infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRRAS) and Brewster angle microscopy Available online 6 June 2015 were used to study the interaction of selected saponins with lipid model membranes. Two structurally different saponins were used: digitonin and a commercial Merck Saponin. Membranes of different composition, namely, Keywords: Digitonin cholesterol, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine or 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-rac-(1- Saponin–membrane interactions glycerol) were formed at the air/water and air/saponin solution interfaces.
