Interplay between lipid lateral diffusion, dye concentration and membrane permeability unveiled by a combined spectroscopic and computational study of a model lipid bilayer

Abstract: Lipid lateral diffusion in membrane bilayers is a fundamental process exploited by cells to enable complex protein structural and dynamic reorganizations. For its importance, lipid mobility in both cellular and model bilayers has been extensively investigated in recent years, especially through the application of time-resolved, fluorescence-based, optical microscopy techniques. However, one caveat of fluorescence techniques is the need to use dye-labeled variants of the lipid of interest, thus potentially pert… Show more

“…The resulting trajectories were analysed in order to reveal the motion of the protein, lipids and TR. The calculated diffusion constant for the non-tagged lipid was found to be 8.4 μm 2 s −1 (see ESI, † 2.22), in good agreement with previously published calculations 74 and within the experimentally reported range of 5–14 μm 2 s −1 . 75 The TR-tagged lipid tail exhibited slower diffusion (4.5 μm 2 s −1 ), reflecting the hydrodynamic drag of the TR.…”

“…We should also keep in mind that most surfaces are not only spatially heterogeneous but also highly dynamic (temporally heterogeneous), a property that considerably complicates their molecular-level description. The spatial heterogeneity is nicely exemplified in biomembranes, which exhibit a soft surface with charge-bearing constituents that are laterally mobile 87 : a time-dependent, non-uniform charge distribution 88 . Another example is the charged silica-water interface, for which the macroscopic wetting angle results from the subtle interplay between nanometre-scale hydrophobic and hydrophilic (potentially charged) patches on the surface 89 .…”
