6. Membrane-Polymer Interactions in Lipid Vesicles
Sammanfattning : Membrane related biological processes are commonly investigated in artificial biomimetic experimental systems. One of the most versatile models is based upon giant unilamellar phospholipid vesicles (liposomes), which are artificially generated spherical lipid structures in an aqueous environment. LÄS MER
7. Controlling Chemistry and Membrane Proteome Composition in Nanotube-Vesicle Networks
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a combination of experimental and theoretical techniques to elucidate the dynamics of chemical reactions in confined biological systems and bridges the gap between biomimetic and biological systems by using cell membranes as simplified biomimetic devices. These are in turn used and analyzed to draw conclusions about the cellular membrane makeup. LÄS MER
8. Self-assembly Strategies for Functional DNA Nanostructures
Sammanfattning : The technological revolution of the twentieth century was famously subject to Moore’s law which related the rate of growth to the ability to scale-down the size of the components – size matters. Several decades later we are, however, approaching the limit of what is possible with silicon wafers. LÄS MER
9. The self-spreading double bilayer/Advances in lipid membrane nanotechnology
Sammanfattning : In my thesis I describe the generation, characterization and uses of self-spreading double bilayers. This new type of solid-supported model membrane combines features and properties of the 2D lipid bilayer membrane, and the 3D phospholiposome. The double bilayer membrane, i.e. LÄS MER
10. Lipid Nanotubes as a Model for Highly Curved Cellular Membrane Structures
Sammanfattning : Cells and their organelles show a variety of membrane morphologies with multiplesubmicrometer features, for example, tubules, vesicles, folds and pores. The shape of thecellular membranes can dynamically change to support a variety of functions, such as cargotransport, transmission of signals between the cells, cell movement and division. LÄS MER
