Published in 2019 at "Biophysical Journal"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2019.09.044

Abstract: Membrane protein functions can be altered by subtle changes in the host lipid bilayer physical properties. Gramicidin channels have emerged as a powerful system for elucidating the underlying mechanisms of membrane protein function regulation through… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Soft matter"

DOI: 10.1039/d0sm01615b

Abstract: Single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) transmembrane channel formation in a pure 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine (DMPC) bilayer, and the spontaneous internalization of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) into the formed pore were simulated. A combination of computational techniques, Dissipative Particle Dynamics-Monte… read more here.
