The effect of filamentous (F) actin on the channel-forming activity of syringomycin E (SRE) in negatively charged and uncharged bilayer lipid membranes (BLM) was studied. F-actin did not affect the membrane conductance in the absence of SRE. No changes in SRE-induced membrane conductance were observed when the above agents were added to the same side of BLM. However, the opposite side addition of F-actin and SRE provokes a multiple increase in membrane conductance. The similar voltage dependence of membrane conductance, equal values of single channel conductance and the effective gating charge of the channels upon F-actin action suggests that the actin-dependent increase in BLM conductance may result from an increase in the number of opened SRE-channels. BLM conductance kinetics depends on the sequence of SRE and F-actin addition, suggesting that actin-dependent rise of conductance may be induced by BLM structural changes that follow F-actin adsorption. F-actin exerted similar effect on membrane conductance of both negatively charged and uncharged bilayers, as well as on conductance of BLM with high ionic strength bathing solution, suggesting the major role for hydrophobic interactions in F-actin adsorption on lipid bilayer. 相似文献

Changes in the bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) conductance induced by electric field were studied. BLMs were formed from diphytanoylphosphocholine (DPhPC) solution in squalene. Certain time after a constant voltage (200-500 mV) was applied to the BLM in the voltage-clamp mode, the BLM conductance started to grow up to approximately 10 nS until the BLM ruptured. The conductance often changed abruptly (with the front duration of less than 33 micros) and then stabilized for a relatively long time (up to 10; 300 ms on average) thus resembling the ion channel activity. The mean amplitude of conductance steps was 650 pS. However, in some cases a slow conductance drift was recorded. When N-methyl-D-glucamine/glutamate ions were used instead of KCl, the conductance changes became 5 times smaller. We suggest that formation in the BLM of single pores approximately 1 nm in diameter should result in the observed changes in BLM conductance. The BLM conductance growth was due to consecutive opening of several such pores. When the electric field amplitude was abruptly decreased (down to 50-100 mV), the conductance dropped rapidly to the background value. When we increased the voltage again, the BLM conductance right after the increase depended on the time BLM spent under "weak" electric field. If this time exceeded 500 ms, the conductance was at the background level, but when the time was diminished, the conductance reached the value recorded before the voltage decrease. These data imply that the closure of the pores should lead to the formation in BLM of small defects (prepores) that can be easily transformed into pores when the voltage is increased. The lifetimes of such prepores did not exceed 500 ms. 相似文献

The interaction of all-trans-retinal (hereinafter referred to as retinal) with planar bilayer lipid membranes has been studied. Addition of retinal into aqueous solutions on both sides of the membrane formed from diphytanoilphosphatidylcholine (DPhPC) or its mixture with diphytanoilphosphatidylethanolamine (DPhPC/DPhPE in w/w proportion of 3: 5) led to a change of conductance induced by ionophores nonactin (increase of conductance) or pentachlorophenol (decrease). Increase of nonactin-induced conductance was dependent on the membrane lipid composition and was two times higher in the case of DPhPC/DPhPE mixture. The change of conductance caused by ionophores of different signs (plus or minus) had different direction suggesting the influence of the retinal on the dipole potential upon its incorporation into BLM. The boundary potentials difference measured by the intramembrane field compensation method (IFC) after the retinal addition on one side of the membrane did not exceed 2.5 mV suggesting that its distribution in the bilayer is almost symmetrical. The illumination of the retinal-containing BLM caused a decrease in its lifetime when the membranes were formed from unsaturated lipids. Retinal incorporated into BLM led also to photoinactivation of the gramicidin channels. The process was completely inhibited by a singlet oxygen quencher (sodium azide). These results indicate that retinal accumulated in the membrane can affect both membrane proteins and the unsaturated lipids by their oxidation by the singlet oxygen. 相似文献

The action of metal polycations and pH on ionic channels produced in bilayer lipid membranes (BLM) by three different toxins was studied by measuring membrane capacitance and channel conductance. Here, we show that critical concentrations of Cd2+, La3+ or Tb3+ induce complex changes in membrane capacitance. The time course of capacitance changes is similar to the time course of channel blocking by these ions at low concentration. No changes in BLM capacitance or conductance were observed in the range of pH 5.8–9.0. A pH shift from 7.4 to 3–4 or 11–12 induced large changes in BLM capacitance and channel conductance. For all studied channel-forming proteins, the initial capacitance increase preceded the conductance decrease caused by addition of polycations or by a change in pH. A close relationship between membrane lipid packing and ion channel protein is suggested. 相似文献

Pore-forming properties of iturin A, a lipopeptide antibiotic 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The addition of iturin A, a lipopeptide antibiotic extracted from Bacillus subtilis, to a bimolecular lipid membrane (BLM) increases dramatically its electrical conductance. For very low concentration of iturin A, discrete conductance steps are observed which are assigned to the formation of conducting pores. The characteristics of these pores depend on the lipid content of the BLM and they change with time. Cholesterol considerably increases the lifetimes of open states. The pores are slightly anion versus cation selective. These first observations unable us to briefly discuss the pore-forming properties of lipopeptides. 相似文献

Gramicidin A (gA) is a hydrophobic pentadecapeptide readily incorporating into a planar bilayer lipid membrane (BLM), thereby inducing a large macroscopic current across the BLM. This current results from ion-channel formation due to head-to-head transbilayer dimerization of gA monomers with rapidly established monomer-dimer equilibrium. Any disturbance of the equilibrium, e.g., by sensitized photoinactivation of a portion of gA monomers, causes relaxation toward a new equilibrium state. According to previous studies, the characteristic relaxation time of the gA-mediated electric current decreases as the current increases upon elevating the gA concentration in the membrane. Here, we report data on the current relaxation kinetics for gA analogs with N-terminal valine replaced by glycine or tyrosine. Surprisingly, the relaxation time increased rather than decreased upon elevation of the total membrane conductance induced by these gA analogs, thus contradicting the classical kinetic scheme. We developed a general theoretical model that accounts for lateral interaction of monomers and dimers mediated by membrane elastic deformations. The modified kinetic scheme of the gramicidin dimerization predicts the reverse dependence of the relaxation time on membrane conductance for gA analogs, with a decreased dimerization constant that is in a good agreement with our experimental data. The equilibration process may be also modulated by incorporation of other peptides (“impurities”) into the lipid membrane. 相似文献

Effect of polymyxin B on the planar bilayer lipid membranes (BLM) formed from synthetic phosphatidic acid has been studied. The addition of cholesterol to phospholipid in molar ratio 1 : 2 was followed by an increase of BLM conductance from 2 x 10(-8) to 3 x 10(-7) Ohm-1 cm-2. It was suggested that the observed increase of conductance was due to the fluidity of the membrane matrix in the presence of cholesterol. It was shown that 10(-6)--10(-5) M polymyxin slightly affected the conductance of BLM from phosphatidic acid. It was found that polymyxin increased conductance of negatively charged BLM modified by palmitic acid from 10(-8) to 10(-6) Ohm-1 cm-2. 相似文献

Summary Addition of fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles to the aqueous phase of a black lipid membrane (BLM) causes a large increase in BLM conductance within 10 min. The conductance increase is absolutely dependent on three conditions: The presence of at least 0.5mm Ca++, an acidic phospholipid such as phosphatidylserine or diphosphatidylglycerol in the BLM phospholipid mixture, and an osmotic gradient across the SR vesicle membrane, with the internal osmolarity greater than the external. These requirements are identical to conditions under which the fusion of phospholipid vesicles occurs.When the early part of the time course of conductance rise is examined at high sensitivity, the conductance is seen to increase in discrete steps. The probability of a step increases with the concentration of Ca++ in the medium, with the fraction of acidic phospholipid in the BLM, and with the size of the osmotic gradient across the SR vesicle membrane. On the other hand, the average conductance change per step is independent of the above parameters, but varies with the type and concentration of ions present in the aqueous phase. For a given ion, the mean specific conductance per step is independent of the ion's concentration between 10 and 100mm.The probability distribution of the step-conductances agrees well with the distribution of SR vesicle surface areas, both before and after sonication of the vesicles.The evidence indicates that SR vesicles fuse with the BLM, thereby inserting SR membrane conductance pathways into it. Each discrete conductance jump appears to be the result of the fusion of a single SR vesicle with the BLM. This technique may serve as a general method for inserting membrane vesicles into an electrically accessible system. 相似文献

Summary The modifications of the electrical properties of bilayer lipid membranes (BLM) composed of cholesterol and an ionic surfactant upon interaction with charged polypeptides were studied. The addition of 10–8
m polylysine (Ps+) to one side of anionic cholesterol dodecylphosphate BLM increases the specific membrane conductance over 1000-fold (from 10–8 to 10–5 mho/cm2) and develops a cationic transmembrane potential larger than 50 mV. This potential is reverted by addition of polyanions such as RNA, polyglutamic or polyadenilic acid to the same side on which Ps+ is present, by addition of Ps+ to the opposite side, or by addition of trypsin to either side. Both conductance and potential changes are hindered by increasing the ionic strength or by raising the pH of the bathing medium, disappearing above pH 11.5 where it is known that Ps+ folds into an -helix. The interaction of polyglutamic acid (PGA) with a cationic cholesterol-hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide BLM results in increased membrane conductance and development of an anionic transmembrane potential which is reverted by addition of polycations to the same aqueous phase where PGA is present. Addition of either Ps+ or PGA to one or both sides of a neutral BLM composed of 7-dehydrocholesterol induces no significant change. The observations suggest the formation of a lipid polymer membrane resultant from the interaction, predominantly electrostatic, of the isolated components. The implications of these results are discussed in terms of the current models of membrane structure. 相似文献

Isolated protein subunits of the crystalline bacterial cell surface layer (S-layer) of Bacillus coagulans E38-66 have been recrystallized on one side of planar black lipid membranes (BLMs) and their influence on the electrical
properties, rupture kinetics and mechanical stability of the BLM was investigated. The effect on the boundary potential, the
capacitance or the conductance of the membrane was negligible whereas the mechanical properties were considerably changed.
The mechanical stability was characterized by applying voltage pulses or ramps to induce irreversible rupture. The amplitude
of the voltage pulse leading to rupture allows conclusions on the ability of membranes to resist external forces. Surprisingly,
these amplitudes were significantly lower for composite S-layer/lipid membranes compared to undecorated BLMs. In contrast,
the delay time between the voltage pulse and the appearance of the initial defect was found to be drastically longer for the
S-layer-supported lipid bilayer. Furthermore, the kinetics of the rupture process was recorded. Undecorated membranes show
a fast linear increase of the pore conductance in time, indicating an inertia-limited defect growth. The attachment of an
S-layer causes a slow exponential increase in the conductance during rupture, indicating a viscosity-determined widening of
the pore. In addition, the mechanical properties on a longer time scale were investigated by applying a hydrostatic pressure
across the BLMs. This causes the BLM to bulge, as monitored by an increase in capacitance. Compared to undecorated BLMs, a
significantly higher pressure gradient has to be applied on the S-layer face of the composite BLMs to observe any change in
capacitance.

The effect of antioxidants alpha-tocopherol and ionol on membranes of human red cells and bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) from azolektin has been studied. Ionol at concentration 4-10 mM induces the hemolysis of erythrocytes, the cells form changes are observed at concentration 2 mM alpha-tocopherol doesn't show the hemolytic properties at concentration 23 mM. The ionol concentration 1 mM doesn't change the form of the cells, but influence the passive electric parameters: the capacity (Cs) of erythrocytic membrane increases and the intracellular conductance (chi i) decreases. Tocopherol (3 mM) induces the decrease both Cs and chi i. The fast increase of membrane conductance is almost immediately registered on one side of BLM at addition of ionol (0,2-0,4 g/ml). Phosphatidylionol synthesized from ionol and contining the acyl chains C15H31 and C17H35 doesn't influence the electrical properties of BLM. 相似文献

The interaction of biotin-binding proteins with biotinylated gramicidin (gA5XB) was studied by monitoring single-channel activity and sensitized photoinactivation kinetics. It was discovered that the addition of streptavidin or avidin to the bathing solutions of a bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) with incorporated gA5XB induced the opening of a channel characterized by approximately doubled single-channel conductance and extremely long open-state duration. We believe that the deceleration of the photoinactivation kinetics observed here with streptavidin and previously (Rokitskaya, T.I., Y.N. Antonenko, E.A. Kotova, A. Anastasiadis, and F. Separovic. 2000. Biochemistry. 39:13053-13058) with avidin reflects the formation of long-lived channels of this type. Both opening and closing of the double-conductance channels occurred via a transient sub-state of the conductance coinciding with that of the usual single-channel transition. The appearance of the double-conductance channels after the addition of streptavidin was preceded by bursts of fast fluctuations of the current with the open state duration of the individual events of 60 ms. The streptavidin-induced double-conductance channels appeared to be inherent only to the gramicidin analogue with a biotin group linked to the COOH terminus through a long linker arm. Including biotinylated phosphatidylethanolamine into the BLM prevented the formation of the double-conductance channels even with the excess streptavidin. In view of the results obtained here, it is suggested that the double-conductance channel represents a tandem of two neighboring gA5XB channels with their COOH termini being cross-linked by the bound streptavidin at both sides of the BLM. The finding that streptavidin induces the formation of the tandem gramicidin channel comprising two channels functioning in concert is considered to be relevant to the physiologically important phenomenon of ligand-induced receptor oligomerization. 相似文献

Summary Static polarization and differential polarized phase fluorimetry studies on rat renal cortical brush border (BBM) and basolateral membranes (BLM) were undertaken to determine the membrane components responsible for differences in BBM and BLM fluidity, whether these differences were due to the order or dynamic components of membrane fluidity and if a fluidity gradient existed within the bilayer. Surface membrane proteins rigidified both BBM and BLM fluidity. Neutral lipid extraction, on the other hand, caused a larger decrease in BBM than BLM fluorescence polarization (0.104vs. 0.60,P<0.01) using diphenyl hexatriene (DPH). Cholesterol addition to phospholipid fractions restored membrane fluidity to total lipid values in both BBM and BLM phospholipids. The response to cholesterol in the BBM was biphasic, while the BLM response was linear. Lateral mobility, quantitated using dipyrenylpropane, was similar in both BBM and BLM fractions at 35°C. BBM and BLM differed primarily in the order component of membrane fluidity as DPH-limiting anisotropy (r
) (0.212vs. 0.154,P<0.01) differed markedly between the two membrane fractions. The two membrane components also differed with respect to 2 and 12-anthroyloxy stearate (2-AS, 12-AS) probes, indicating a difference in the dynamic component of membrane fluidity may also be present. DPH and 12-As probes were also used to quantitate inner core membrane fluidity and showed the BBM was less fluid than the BLM for intact membranes, total lipid extracts and phospholipids. Results obtained using the surface membrane probes trimethylammonium-DPH (TMA-DPH) and 2-AS suggested a fluidity gradient existed in both BBM and BLM bilayers with the inner core being more fluid in both membranes. These data indicate cholesterol is in large part responsible for fluidity differences between BBM and BLM and that these membranes, while clearly differing in the order component of membrane fluidity, may also difer in the dynamic component as well. 相似文献

A dedicated dynamic light scattering (DLS) setup was employed to study the undulations of freely suspended planar lipid bilayers, the so-called black lipid membranes (BLM), over a previously inaccessible spread of frequencies (relaxation times ranging from 10(-2) to 10(-6) s) and wavevectors (250 cm(-1) < q < 38,000 cm(-1)). For a BLM consisting of 1,2-dielaidoyl-sn-3-glycero-phosphocholine (DEPC) doped with two different proportions of the cationic lipid analog dioctadecyl-dimethylammonium bromide (DODAB) we observed an increase of the lateral tension of the membrane with the DODAB concentration. The experimentally determined dispersion behavior of the transverse shear mode was in excellent agreement with the theoretical predictions of a first-order hydrodynamic theory. The symmetric adsorption of the crystalline bacterial cell surface layer (S-layer) proteins from Bacillus coagulans E38-66 to a weakly cationic BLM (1.5 mol % DODAB) causes a drastic reduction of the membrane tension well beyond the previous DODAB-induced tension increase. The likely reason for this behavior is an increase of molecular order along the lipid chains by the protein and/or partial protein penetration into the lipid headgroup region. S-layer protein adsorption to a highly cationic BLM (14 mol % DODAB) shows after 7 h incubation time an even stronger decrease of the membrane tension by a factor of five, but additionally a significant increase of the (previously negligible) surface viscosity, again in excellent agreement with the hydrodynamic theory. Further incubation (24 h) shows a drastic increase of the membrane bending energy by three orders of magnitude as a result of a large-scale, two-dimensional recrystallization of the S-layer proteins at both sides of the BLM. The results demonstrate the potential of the method for the assessment of the different stages of protein adsorption and recrystallization at a membrane surface by measurements of the collective membrane modes and their analysis in terms of a hydrodynamic theory. 相似文献

For modeling the interaction of myoglobin with mitochondrial membranes, the adsorption of different ligand forms, the physiologically active reduced MbO2 and inactive oxidized met-Mb, on one of the surfaces of artificial bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) was studied using potentiodynamic technique known as the "capacity minimization" method. As mitochondrial membranes are negatively charged, BLM from the negatively charged palmitoyl-2-oleil-phosphatidyl glycerol (POPG) and neutral soybean phosphatidylcholine (lecithin) were used. It is shown that both myoglobins strongly interact with BLM in the pH range 6-8. The dependence of the potential difference between cis-and trans-surfaces of the lipid membrane (deltaE, mV) on the protein concentration is characteristic for the Langmuir adsorption isotherm, and the saturation level (deltaEmax, mV) corresponds to monolayer of myoglobin. The protein adsorption is essentially electrostatic in nature, as adsorption activity increases sharply in the case of the membrane from POPG: in a approximately 15-fold in the case of MbO2 and in a approximately 2.5 times for the met-Mb. The parameters of the MbO2 and met-Mb adsorption on BLM from lecithin and POPG do not change in the pH 6-8 range. It can be assumed that the anionic groups of phospholipids associate with the cationic groups of the protein, the charge state of those does not change in the pH 6-8 range. The most likely candidates for interaction with phospholipids of BLM are invariant lysines and arginines in the environment of the myoglobin heme cavity. 相似文献

A piezoeffect in bilayer lipid membranes (BLM), i.e. a generation of alternate electrical current y through a membrane under alternate pressure gradient in the absence of constant transmembrane potential is investigated. It is shown that y is not connected with the membrane deformations, it is generated with electroosmotic flow of K+ ions, its amplitude increases with a rise of BLM phonic conductance and is probably connected with defects in BLM structure. The value of the filtration coefficient Lp is estimated. 相似文献

Many ion channel proteins have binding sites for toxins and pharmaceutical drugs and therefore have much promise as the sensing entity in high throughput technologies and biosensor devices. Measurement of ionic conductance changes through ion channels requires a robust biological membrane with sufficient longevity for practical applications. The conventional planar BLM is 100-300 μm in diameter and typically contains fewer than a dozen channels whereas pharmaceutical screening methods in cells use current recordings for many ion channels. We present a new, simple method for the fabrication of a disposable porous-supported bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) ion channel biosensor using hydrated Teflon (polytetrafluoroethylene, PTFE) filter material (pore size 5 μm, filter diameter=1 mm). The lipid layer was monitored for its thickness and mechanical stability by electrical impedance spectroscopy. The results showed membrane capacitances of 1.8±0.2 nF and membrane resistances of 25.9±4.1 GΩ, indicating the formation of lipid bilayers. The current level increased upon addition of the pore-forming peptide gramicidin. Following addition of liposomes containing voltage-gated sodium channels, small macroscopic sodium currents (1-80 pA) could be recorded. By preloading the porous Teflon with sodium channel proteoliposomes, prior to BLM formation, currents of 1-10 nA could be recorded in the presence of the activator veratridine that increased with time, and were inhibited by tetrodotoxin. A lack of rectification suggests that the channels incorporated in both orientations. This work demonstrates that PTFE filters can support BLMs that provide an environment in which ion channels can maintain their functional activity relevant for applications in drug discovery, toxin detection, and odour sensing. 相似文献

Membrane proteins have been isolated from neuromuscular synapses of the crab Potamon transcaspicum using a specific blocker of glutamatergic synapses, the neurotoxin of the spider Argiope lobata. These membrane components have been shown to induce glutamate-sensitive conductance in bilayer lipid membranes (BLM) in the presence of sodium ions. As an agent blocking desensitization of glutamatergic synapses, concanavalin A was shown to enhance the conductance and to abolish desensitization. Diethylester of glutamic acid as a blocker of glutamatergic synapses inhibited glutamate-induced conductance. No similar change in conductance was seen when BLM was modified by a membrane proteins -neurotoxin complex. Conductance current fluctuations induced by these receptor protein components were monitored by the single-channel registration method. 相似文献

The method of sensitized photoinactivation based on the photosensitized damage of gramicidin A (gA) molecules was applied here to study ionic channels formed by minigramicidin (the 11-residue analogue of gramicidin A) in a planar bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) of different thickness. Irradiation of BLM with a single flash of visible light in the presence of a photosensitizer (aluminum phthalocyanine or Rose Bengal) generating singlet oxygen provoked a decrease in the minigramicidin-induced electric current across BLM, the kinetics of which had the characteristic time of several seconds, as observed with gA. For gA, there is good correlation between the characteristic time of photoinactivation and the single-channel lifetime. In contrast to the covalent dimer of gA characterized by extremely long single-channel lifetime and the absence of current relaxation upon flash excitation, the covalent head-to-head dimer of minigramicidin displayed the flash-induced current decrease with the kinetics being strongly dependent on the membrane thickness. The current decrease became slower both upon increasing the concentration of the minigramicidin covalent dimer and upon including cholesterol in the membrane composition. These data in combination with the quadratic dependence of the current on the peptide concentration can be rationalized by hypothesizing that the macroscopic current across BLM measured at high concentrations of the peptide is provided by dimers of minigramicidin covalent dimers in the double beta(5.7)-helical conformation having the lifetime of about 0.4 s, while single channels with the lifetime of 0.01 s, observed at a very low peptide concentration, correspond to the single-stranded beta(6.3)-helical conformation. Alternatively the results can be explained by clustering of channels at high concentrations of the minigramicidin covalent dimer. 相似文献
