protein phosphatase 2A는 bovine brain homogenate의 세포질 fraction에서 얻어졌다. 기질로서 인산화된 histione H1을 이용하여 측정한 phosphatase 의 활성은 dipalmitoyIphophatidylcholine(DPPC) 혹은 phosphatidylserine/DPPC의 혼합물로 구성된 liposome의 존재하에서 저해되었다. Protein phosphatase 2A의 lipid membrane에의 결합은 다중층 지질막의 혼합물 계에서 liposome 의 양이 증가함에 따라서 상등액 중의 phosphatase의 활성이 감소하는 것으로 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 [$^{125}I$]protein phosphatase 2A가 liposome과 동시에 용출되는 것으로도 확인되었다. 그러나 liposome에 대한 protein phosphatase의 친화력은 높지 않았다. 한편, okadaic acid와 liposome은 협동으로 phosphatase의 활성을 감소시켰다. 이것은 okadaic acid가 lipid membrane이나 membrane에 결함한 phosphatase에는 결합하지 않는다는 것을 의미한다. 그러므로 lipid membrane에 의한 protein phosphatase 2A의 활성 저해 효과는 phosphatase 2A와 lipid membrane과의 결합에 의한 것이라고 설명될 수있다.

The binding interaction between a hemolytic peptide ${\delta}$-lysin and a zwitterionic lipid bilayer POPC was investigated through a series of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. ${\delta}$-Lysin is a 26-residue, amphipathic, ${\alpha}$-helical peptide toxin secreted by Staphylococcus aureus. Unlike typical antimicrobial peptides, ${\delta}$-lysin has no net charge and it is often found in aggregated forms in solution even at low concentration. Our study showed that only the monomer, not dimer, inserts into the bilayer interior. The monomer is preferentially attracted toward the membrane with its hydrophilic side facing the bilayer surface. However, peptide insertion requires the opposite orientation where the hydrophobic side of peptide points toward the membrane interior. Such orientation allows the charged residues, Lys and Asp, to have stable salt bridges with the lipid head-group while the hydrophobic residues are buried deeper in the hydrophobic lipid interior. Our simulations suggest that breaking these salt bridges is the key step for the monomer to be fully inserted into the center of lipid bilayer and, possibly, to translocate across the membrane.

The distribution of local anesthetics between the hydrocarbone interior and surface area of the lipid bilayer of liposomal membrane was calculated employeg fluorescence probe technique. The quenching of fluorescence probe technique. The quenching of fluorescence probe technique. The quenching of fluorescence of 12-(9-anthroyl) stearic acid and N-octadecyl naphthyl-2-amini-6-sulfonic acid by the local anesthetics in liposomal system was used to calculate the distribution. The Stern-Volmer equation was modified and employed for this calculation. The results showed that procaine hydrocloride and benzocaine were mainly distributed on the surface area of the lipid bilayer of the liposoal membrane, while tetracaine hydrochloride penetrated effectively into the hydrocarbon interior and showed even distribution in the lipid bilayer.

The microviscosites of the lipid bilayers of liposomal membranes of phospholipids were measured by the intermolecular excimer, formation method employing pyrene as a fluorescence probe, and the effects of n-alkanols and other local anesthetics on the microviscosity were investigated. The results showed that the n-alkanols and the ohter local anesthetics effectively lowered the microviscosity of the lipid bilayer of the dipalmitoyl phosphatidycholine liposomal membrane in proportion to the concentration of the additives. Moreover, there was a fairly good correlation between the ocal anesthetic activities and the microviscosity-lowering activities of these drugs. This results suggests that the nerve blocking activity of local anesthetics might have some relation with their activity fluidizing the lipid bilayer of biomembrane.

The stabilization effect of .alpha.-tocopherol incorporated into liposomal phospholipid membrane was investigated by fluorospectrophotometry and UV-visible spectretarded by the presence of .alpha.-tocopherol in the bilayer of liposomal phospholipid membrane relative to cholesterol-containing liposomes and pure phospholipid liposomes. .alpha.-tocopherol-containing liposomes prolonged the oxidation of liposomes-embedded heme as those of cholesterol-containing liposomes and pure phospholipid liposomes. Thus .alpha.-tocopherol-containing liposomes may be useful for the carrier systems of nutrients and drugs to phospholipid bilayer and stabilized liposomes.

The cell membrane, also known as the biological membrane, surrounds every living cell. The main components of cell membranes are lipids and therefore called as lipid membranes. These membranes are mainly made up of a two-dimensional lipid bilayer along with integral and peripheral proteins. The complex nature of lipid membranes makes it difficult to study and hence artificial lipid membranes are prepared which mimic the original lipid membranes. These artificial lipid membranes are prepared from phospholipid vesicles (liposomes). The liposomes are formed when self-forming phospholipid bilayer comes in contact with water. Liposomes can be unilamellar or multilamellar vesicles which comprises of phospholipids that can be produced naturally or synthetically. The phospholipids are non-toxic, biodegradable and are readily produced on a large scale. These liposomes are mostly used in the drug delivery systems. This paper offers comprehensive literature with insights on developing basic understanding of lipid membranes from its structure, organization, and phase behavior to its potential use in biomedical applications. The progress in the field of artificial membrane models considering methods of preparation of liposomes for mimicking lipid membranes, interactions between the lipid membranes, and characterizing techniques such as UV-visible, FTIR, Calorimetry and X-ray diffraction are explained in a concise manner.

Tolaasin is a channel forming bacterial toxin produced by Pseudomonas tolaasii and causes a brown blotch disease on cultivated oyster mushrooms. When tolaasin molecules form channels in the membranes of mushroom cells, they destroy cellular membrane structure, known as 'colloid osmotic lysis'. In order to understand the molecular mechanisms forming membrane channels by tolaasin molecules, we have investigated the electrophysiological characteristics of tolaasin-induced channels in lipid bilayer.(omitted)

구리 이온 농도를 측정하기 위하여 생체재료를 사용하여 마이크로플루이딕 시스템을 제작하였다. 은 전극에 세포막을 모방한 이중층 지질막(bilayer lipid membrane; BLM)을 피복하여 제2 구리 이온 농도를 감지하도록 하였다. 은 전극에 지지된 BLM은 그 안정성이 증대되었다. 은에 지지된 이중층 지질막(s-BLM)은 은 전선을 지질 (phosphatidylcholine; PC) 용액에 담갔다가 KCl 용액에 담글 때 자기조립 특성에 의하여 용이하게 형성할 수 있다. 이 지지된 이중층 지질막(s-BLM)은 $Cu^{2+}$의 농도와 s-BLM을 통과하는 전류 간의 상관 관계를 결정하기 위하여 사용되었다. 얻어진 상관관계는 선형을 보였으며 높은 재현성을 가졌다. $Cu^{2+}$ 농도가 $10{\sim}130{\mu}M$인 범위에서 $Cu^{2+}$ 농도와 전류의 상관관계를 나타내기 위하여 보정 곡선을 구축하였다. 이 보정 곡선을 미지 시료의 $Cu^{2+}$ 농도 측정에 사용하였다. 지지된 이중층 지질막이 구비된 마이크로플루이딕 시스템은 PDMS(polydimethyl siloxane)를 사용하여 전형적인 연질 포토리소그라피와 몰딩 기법으로 제작하였다. 집적된 마이크로플루이딕 시스템은 은 전선을 절단하지 않고도 은 표면을 활성화시키는 기능, 은 표면에 이중층 지질막을 피복하는 기능, KCl 완충 용액을 주입하는 기능, $Cu^{2+}$를 포함한 시료를 주입하는 기능, 시료 중의 $Cu^{2+}$ 농도를 측정하는 기능 등 다중 기능을 가지도록 하였다.

Metachromatic properties of admixture of thionine and methylene blue(MB) in aqueous solution and phospholipid bilayer membrane have been studied by absorption spectroscopy. When thionine and MB were mixed, new coaggregate has been formed because of MB was redistributed to thionine aggregate. In phosphlipid bilayer membrane system, the highly concentrated thionine was easily formed the coaggregation with MB moiety independent of MB concentration, and absorption band of admixture were more transferred to short wavelength than aqueous system. In monomeric thionine concentration, the coaggregation band was observed at the middle wavelength between the site of monomeric thionine and the site of dimeric MB in the presence of lipid bilayer membrane.

Change of membrane property can affect the activity of membrane proteins. In this work, we investigated the single channel properties of large conductance $Ca^{2+}$-activated $K^{+}$(BK) channels in planar lipid bilayers of different thickness. First, we recorded the activity of single BK channels from rat skeletal muscle incorporated into the control bilayer, then increased the bilayer thickness by perfusing the recording solution with the one saturated with n-pentane, or reduced the thickness by adding diheptanoylphosphatidylcholine (di$C_{7:0}$PC) to the recording soluton.(omitted)
