Opis: Biomembrane Frontiers - Thomas Jue

This is the second book in the "Handbook Of Modern Biophysics" series. "The Handbook of Modern Biophysics: Biomembrane Frontiers - Nanostructures, Models, and the Design of Life" will focus on frontiers in biomembranes, a pertinent topic in modern biophysics. All contributors lead the membrane research field as active, well respected researchers/educators at Carnegie-Mellon University, Finland Institute of Physics, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratory, Stanford University, University of Calgary, University of California, University of Pennsylvania, and Vanderbilt University. From the reviews: "There are two broad approaches to the study of biological membranes. ... As suggested by the title, this volume takes the biophysical approach. Necessarily, the approach adopted in many chapters is very mathematical, but most chapters include enough background discussion for the more non-mathematical to understand ... . It is based on a workshop held in early 2008, and would be of most interest to postdoctoral fellows and above working in a Physics environment." (Anthony G. Lee, Molecular Membrane Biology, February, 2010)Molecular Theory Applied to Lipid Bilayers and Lipid-Protein Interactions.- Membrane Elasticity and Mediated Interactions in Continuum Theory: A Differential Geometric Approach.- Structure and Dynamics of Lipid Monolayers: Theory and Applications.- Multiscale Modeling of Supported Lipid Bilayers.- Collective Dynamics in Lipid Membranes: From Pore Formation to Flip-Flops.- Spatiotemporal Organization of Spin-Coated Supported Model Membranes.- Nanopore Analysis of Nucleic Acids: Single-Molecule Studies of Molecular Dynamics, Structure, and Base Sequence.- Complex Applications of Simple FRAP on Membranes.- Punching Holes in Membranes: How Oligomeric Pore-Forming Proteins and Lipids Cooperate to Form Aqueous Channels in Membranes.- Morphogens, Membranes and Mechanotransduction in Articular Cartilage.- Lifecycle of a Lipoprotein from a Biophysical Perspective.- Targeting Apolipoproteins in Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
