Globotriaosylceramide (Gb(3)) is a glycosphingolipid present in the plasma membrane that is the natural receptor of the bacterial Shiga toxin. The unsaturation level of Gb(3) acyl chains has a drastic impact on lipid bilayer properties and phase behaviour, ...
In this paper, we present a coarse-grained model of a hydrated saturated phospholipid bilayer (dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine, DMPC) containing cholesterol that we study using a hybrid dissipative particle dynamics-Monte Carlo method. This approach allows ...
We present a three dimensional (3D) microenvironment for on-chip cell culture, with engineered geometrical and mechanical properties. The device, named mu-flower, is based on micorfabricated cantilever beams bent out of plane by the intrinsic stresses of a ...

Typical operating conditions for mobile sensor systems, and in particular mobile robots, exhibit a wide range of mechanical disturbances due their ego-motion. Sensor systems mounted on these mobile platforms often suffer to varying degrees from these distu ...

We present a mechanism for a generic, powerful force of assembly and mobility for transmembrane proteins in lipid bilayers. This force is a pre-transition (or pre-melting) effect for the first-order transition between ordered and disordered phases in the m ...

Introduction: As part of the MicroArray Quality Control (MAQC)-II project, this analysis examines how the choice of univariate feature-selection methods and classification algorithms may influence the performance of genomic predictors under varying degrees ...

Seven alloys of the ternary Au-Cu-Pt system, containing 75 or 76.5 wt.% Au with 0-15 wt.% Pt and heat-treated to a fully ordered condition, are examined using in-situ synchrotron radiation to determine transformation temperatures and phases formed, and to ...
