Secondary ion mass spectrometry as a tool to evaluate chemical composition within model and cellular membranes
… tools to elucidate the chemical distribution of lipid components within the eukaryotic cellular membrane is critical to understanding their role in many cell processes. Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is a technique that offers both chemical and spatial specificity, and has become …

Effects of Immobilization Matrices and Protein Orientation on Biomolecular Recognition at Solid-Liquid Interfaces
… cytochrome b5 monolayers were constructed on supported lipid membranes using a site-selective immobilization method. The orientation of the immobilized cytochrome b5 was well controlled as verified with linear dichroism measurements. The orientational dependence of the protein electrostatic …

Applying secondary ion mass spectrometry to cellular and model membranes to image component distribution and quantify composition
… Of particular interest is a membrane protein’s lipid environment, which may play a role in the protein’s function. Herein, this thesis describes the synthesis of fluorine-functionalized colloidal gold immunolabels that facilitate the imaging of specific proteins in parallel with stable isotope …

Protein-lipid interactions in raft-exhibiting membranes probed by combined AFM and FCS
… far from being an inert assembly of protein and lipids which separates cells from the surrounding environment. A multitude of biological processes, ranging from active transport of ions into and out of the cell, to the immune response, are regulated at the level of the plasma membrane. The …
