DOI: 10.1021/acs.jctc.8b00945

Abstract: The amphipathic lipid packing sensor (ALPS) motif, originally discovered on the ArfGAP1 membrane-binding protein, binds to pre-existing large packing defects in a membrane (spontaneous or due to membrane curvature), though a more precise relationship between… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-08534-w

Abstract: Amphipathic helical (AH) peptide-based fluorescent probes were explored for analysis of lipid packing defects (LPDs) in the membrane surface of exosomes. Two kinds of AH peptide sequences, derived from the C-terminal sequence of Apolipoprotein A-I… read more here.
