Glycolipid membranes through atomistic simulations: Effect of glucose and galactose head groups on lipid bilayer properties

Article Abstract:

The study focuses on glycolipid membranes by considering the effects of four different head groups namely the glucose, galactose, phosphatidylcholine (PC), and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) on lipid bilayer properties. The main objective is to elucidate the specific properties of glycolipid membranes with respect to the two reference systems.

Free pyrene probes in gel and fluid membranes: Perspective through atomistic simulations

Article Abstract:

Atomic-scale molecular dynamics simulations are used to probe the properties of free pyrene probes inside gel- and fluidlike phospholipid membranes. Pyrenes are found to locally perturb membrane structure, while the nature of perturbations in the gel and fluid phases seems to be completely different.

Effect of double bond position on lipid bilayer properties: insight through atomistic simulations

Article Abstract:

The structural and dynamic properties of phosphatidylcholines, the most common phospholipids in plasma membranes are demonstrated. The phospholipids properties are strongly affected by unsaturation of lipid hydrocarbon chains.
