动态表面张力破裂磷脂膜的分子动力学模拟
Molecular dynamics simulation of rupture of lipid bilayer under dynamic surface tension
摘要
Abstract
The biocompatible nature of lipid bilayer makes it appealing for wide applications including biosensor, biomimetic membrane for separation or reaction. Understanding lipid bilayer rupture is of fundamental importance for the design and application of lipid bilayer based devices. In the present study, a lipid bilayer membrane made by dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and dipalmitoyl phosphoglycerol (DPPG) was used for the molecular dynamics simulation of the lipid bilayer rupture. A method for determining the rupture time and the critical surface tension was proposed, based on which, the effects of lipid bilayer composition on the lipid bilayer rupture were examined. It was shown that an increase in the negatively charged DPPG in the lipid bilayer postponed the rupture time, indicating a strengthened structural stability. On the other hand, the widened distribution of the rupture time indicated the heterogeneous nature of the lipid bilayer. A dynamic microscopic opposing forces model was proposed to describe the above mentioned lipid bilayer rupture under an unsteady surface tension. The model had reproduced the simulation results and thus offered theoretical tools for the design and optimization of the lipid bilayer based devices and processes.关键词
