Membrane Systems in Cyanobacteria
… prokaryotes with three highly differentiated membrane systems: plasma membrane, outer membrane, and an internal system of thylakoid membranes. The presence of different membrane systems lends these cells a unique complexity among bacteria. Many details concerning the interrelations between the …

Observations in Lipid Membrane Systems
The plasma membrane is phase separated into a fluid (Ld) phase and a more ordered (Lo) phase. The latter exists as small “rafts” of specific lipid composition containing a host of signaling proteins. Lipid raft theory links the aggregation of rafts to a signaling event. In its current iteration, …

New techniques for implementing membrane systems
… In particular, the area of computing with the membranes of the living cells commonly referred as ‘membrane computing’ or ‘transition P-systems’. It introduces the concept of ‘adaptability’. The new idea of “adaptability “appears in this work. Adaptability means the ability for the membrane …

Analysis of membrane systems using lipoprotein nanodiscs
Membrane systems play a critical role in biochemistry by regulating the chemical, energy, and information flow into the cell and its various compartments. However, the amphipathic nature of membrane proteins and lipids makes their analysis challenging. Engineered nanoscale lipoprotein Nanodiscs …

Modeling and Control of Tensegrity-Membrane Systems
Tensegrity-membrane systems are a class of new bar-tendon-membrane systems. Such novel systems can be treated as extensions of tensegrity structures and are generally lightweight and deployable. These two major advantages enable tensegrity-membrane systems to become one of the most promising …

Computational Investigation of Protein-Membrane Systems Involved in Cellular Trafficking
"Living cells are enclosed by lipid membranes, and the inside of a cell is also subdivided into different functionally distinct membrane-bound compartments. To overcome the barrier the membranes pose for cellular trafficking between the outside and the inside, or between different compartments of …

Ammonia Recovery from Digester Centrate with Electrochemical Membrane Systems: Mechanism, Performance, and Application
… nitrogen management. Electrochemical and membrane technology are emerging technologies that can achieve ammonia recovery with high recovery efficiency, while many of the those are still energy- and chemical-intensive. These motivate us to develop novel integrated membrane and …

Thermodynamic and Spectroscopic Investigations of Novel Antimicrobial Peptides containing Unnatural Amino Acids with Model Membrane Systems
… believed that the selectivity for bacteria cell membranes over host cells and the potency between different bacteria strains is derived from the ability of the AMPs to exploit the differences in chemical composition of various organism's membranes. The hypothesis guiding this research states: The …
