Synopsis

Biophysical Approaches for the Study of Membrane Structure, Part B, Volume 701 explores lipid membrane asymmetry and lateral heterogeneity. A burst of recent research has shown that bilayers whose leaflets differ in their physical properties--such as composition, phase state, or lateral stress--exhibit many fascinating new characteristics, but also pose a host of challenges related to their creation, characterization, simulation, and theoretical description. Chapters in this new release include Characterization of domain formation in complex membranes: Analyzing the bending modulus from simulations of complex membranes, The density-threshold affinity: Calculating lipid binding affinities from unbiased Coarse-Grain Molecular Dynamics simulations, and much more.

Additional sections cover Uncertainty quantification for trans-membrane stresses and moments from simulation, Using molecular dynamics simulations to generate small-angle scattering curves and cryo-EM images of proteoliposomes, Binary Bilayer Simulations for Partitioning Within Membranes, Modeling Asymmetric Cell Membranes at All-atom Resolution, Multiscale remodeling of biomembranes and vesicles, Building complex membranes with Martini 3, Predicting lipid sorting in curved bilayer membranes, Simulating asymmetric membranes using P21 periodic boundary conditions, and many other interesting topics.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Markus Deserno is a professor in the Department of Physics at Carnegie Mellon University, where he works in the field of theoretical and computational biophysics. He focuses on lipid membranes and proteins, using a wide spectrum of techniques that range from coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations up to differential geometry, continuum elasticity, and statistical field theory. Deserno received his Ph.D. from the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (MPI-P) in Mainz, Germany, in 2000. After graduation, he held a postdoctoral research position in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at UCLA, followed by a group leader position back at the MPI-P. In 2007 he joined the Department of Physics at Carnegie Mellon University, where he got tenured in 2011 and became Full Professor in 2016. Between 2014 and 2020 Deserno served on the Editorial Board of the Biophysical Journal. He is an elected Fellow of the American Physical Society and received the Thomas E. Thompson Award of the Biophysical Society. Edit

Tobias Baumgart is a professor in the Chemistry Department of the University of Pennsylvania. An experimental biophysical chemist at heart, he focuses on understanding how both lipids and proteins, as well as the continuum mechanics of bilayer assemblies determine membrane function. Baumgart obtained his Ph.D. from the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (MPI-P) and the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany, in 2001. He was a postdoctoral research associate with Watt Webb, Gerald Feigenson, and Barbara Baird at Cornell University in Ithaca, before becoming an Assistant Professor in 2005, and a full professor in 2017. He was on the Biophysical Journal's Editorial Board between 2013 and 2019. He is a recipient of the Alfred P. Sloan and NSF CAREER awards, as well as the Dennis M. DeTurck and Charles Ludwig awards for distinguished teaching. Edit
