RBCs require high deformability to sustain in-vivo circulation, and impaired deformability leads to several post-transfusion adverse outcomes. Therefore, improved understanding of the interrelation between the morphological and deformability changes and the quality and viability of the stored RBCs is essential to prevent or reduce the transfusion related adverse outcomes. To support this requisite, the influence on RBC deformability due to several aspects of the storage lesion, namely, the changes in cell morphology, surface area and volume, RBC membrane biomechanics, and cytoskeletal structural integrity are explored numerically in this study. Abstract: Storage lesion is a critical issue facing transfusion treatments, and it adversely affects the quality and viability of stored red blood cells (RBCs).

Received: 21 September 2020; Accepted: 9 October 2020; Published: 14 October 2020 Abstract: In biology, the modern scientific fashion is to mostly study proteins. Much less attention is paid to lipids. However, lipids themselves are extremely important for the formation and functioning of cellular membrane organelles. Here, the role of the geometry of the lipid bilayer in regulation of organelle shape is analyzed. It is proposed that during rapid shape transition, the number of lipid heads and their size (i.e., due to the change in lipid head charge) inside lipid leaflets modulates the geometrical properties of organelles, in particular their membrane curvature. Insertion of proteins into a lipid bilayer and the shape of protein trans-membrane domains also affect the trans-membrane asymmetry between surface areas of luminal and cytosol leaflets of the membrane. In the cases where lipid molecules with a specific shape are not predominant, the shape of lipids (cylindrical, conical, or wedge-like) is less important for the regulation of membrane curvature, due to the flexibility of their acyl chains and their high ability to diffuse.

Abstract The behavior of the cinnamycin on the biomimetic membrane was studied with respect to the curvature of the phosphatidylethanolamine(PE)-included membrane with the adhesion measured by the atomic force microscope(AFM). The membrane was formed through vesicle fusion on the hydrophobic surface of the sphere spheres, which was used to define the curvature of the membrane. The hydrophobicity was generated by the reaction of alkyl-silane and analyzed with the X-ray photoelectron spectrometer. The cinnamycin, immobilized covalently to the AFM tip coated with 1-mercapto-1-undecanol that was observed inert to any adhesion to the membrane, showed that the adhesion became stronger with the increase in the curvature. The correlation between the adhesion and the curvature was linearly proportional.

Abstract: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a novel epidemic strain of Betacoronavirus that is responsible for the current viral pandemic, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID- 19), a global health crisis. Other epidemic Betacoronaviruses include the 2003 SARS-CoV-1 and the 2009 Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV), the genomes of which, particularly that of SARS-CoV-1, are similar to that of the 2019 SARS-CoV-2. In this extensive review, we document the most recent information on Coronavirus proteins, with emphasis on the membrane proteins in the Coronaviridae family. We include information on their structures, functions, and participation in pathogenesis. While the shared proteins among the different coronaviruses may vary in structure and function, they all seem to be multifunctional, a common theme interconnecting these viruses. Many transmembrane proteins encoded within the SARS-CoV-2 genome play important roles in the infection cycle while others have functions yet to be understood. We compare the various structural and nonstructural proteins within the Coronaviridae family to elucidate potential overlaps Citation: Wong, N.A.; Saier, M.H., Jr.

Membrane Curvature Sorting And Generation By The Bar Domain Proteins Endophilin And Syndapin Abstract Membrane curvature provides a means to control spatial organization and activity of cells. It is regulated by plenty of peripherally binding membrane proteins, including BAR domain proteins. Two important sub- families of BAR domain containing proteins are NBAR and FBAR domain proteins. However, the current understanding of BAR domain protein membrane curvature (MC) sensing and generation is insufficient. My thesis intends to contribute to alleviating this situation. We first performed curvature sorting and generation experiments of an NBAR domain protein: endophilin. We found that the endophilin NBAR domain (ENBAR) behaved as a curvature sensor or generator at different concentrations. We studied lateral diffusion of ENBAR and found its diffusion coefficients depending on its membrane density. We developed an analytical model to explain our experimental results. Our theory predicts that the membrane curvature serves as a switch that is modulated by a thermodynamic phase transition. Then we studied the influence of membrane insertion helices on NBAR domain protein MC sensing and membrane dissociation kinetics by comparing ENBAR WT protein with helices deletion mutants.

Pohl * and Olga Jovanovic * Institute of Physiology, Pathophysiology and Biophysics, Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna A-1210, Austria * Correspondence: [email protected] (E.E.P.); [email protected] (O.J.) Received: 9 November 2019; Accepted: 10 December 2019; Published: 12 December 2019 Abstract: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and their derivatives, reactive aldehydes (RAs), have been implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases, including metabolic, cardiovascular, and inflammatory disease. Understanding how RAs can modify the function of membrane proteins is critical for the design of therapeutic approaches in the above-mentioned pathologies. Over the last few decades, direct interactions of RA with proteins have been extensively studied. Yet, few studies have been performed on the modifications of membrane lipids arising from the interaction of RAs with the lipid amino group that leads to the formation of adducts. It is even less well understood how various multiple adducts affect the properties of the lipid membrane and those of embedded membrane proteins. In this short review, we discuss a crucial role of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and PE-derived adducts as mediators of RA effects on membrane proteins. We propose potential PE-mediated mechanisms that explain the modulation of membrane properties and the functions of membrane transporters, channels, receptors, and enzymes. We aim to highlight this new area of research and to encourage a more nuanced investigation of the complex nature of the new lipid-mediated mechanism in the modification of membrane protein function under oxidative stress.

  • The Influence of Cholesterol on Phospholipid Membrane Curvature and Bending Elasticity
    Biophysical Journal Volume 73 July 1997 267-276 267 The Influence of Cholesterol on Phospholipid Membrane Curvature and Bending Elasticity Z. Chen and R. P. Rand Department of Biological Sciences, Brock University, St. Catharines, Ontario L2S 3A1, Canada ABSTRACT The behavior of dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE)/cholesterol/tetradecane and dioleoylphosphatidyl- choline (DOPC)/cholesterol/tetradecane were examined using x-ray diffraction and the osmotic stress method. DOPE/ tetradecane, with or without cholesterol, forms inverted hexagonal (H,,) phases in excess water. DOPC/tetradecane forms lamellar phases without cholesterol at lower temperatures. With tetradecane, as little as 5 mol% cholesterol in DOPC induced the formation of H,, phases of very large dimension. Increasing levels of cholesterol result in a systematic decrease in the H,, lattice dimension for both DOPE and DOPC in excess water. Using osmotic pressure to control hydration, we applied a recent prescription to estimate the intrinsic curvature and bending modulus of the H,, monolayers. The radii of the intrinsic curvature, Rp°, at a pivotal plane of constant area within the monolayer were determined to be 29.4 A for DOPE/tetradecane at 220C, decreasing to 27 A at 30 mol% cholesterol. For DOPC/tetradecane at 320C, RpO decreased from 62.5 A to 40 A as its cholesterol content increased from 30 to 50 mol%. These data yielded an estimate of the intrinsic radius of curvature for pure DOPC of 87.3 A. The bending moduli kc of DOPE/tetradecane and DOPC/tetradecane, each with 30 mol% cholesterol, are 15 and 9 kT, respectively. Tetradecane itself was shown to have little effect on the bending modulus in the cases of DOPE and cholesterol/DOPE.
