Kerr D, Tietjen G, Gong Z, Tajkhorshid E, Adams E, Lee K
Biochim Biophys Acta Biomembr . 2018 Jun; 1860(10):2126-2133. PMID: 29920237
There is a diverse class of peripheral membrane-binding proteins that specifically bind phosphatidylserine (PS), a lipid that signals apoptosis or cell fusion depending on the membrane context of its presentation....

Watkins E, Frey S, Chi E, Cao K, Pacuszka T, Majewski J, et al.
Biophys J . 2018 Mar; 114(5):1103-1115. PMID: 29539397
The influence of carbohydrate structure on the ordering of glycosphingolipids (GSLs) and surrounding phospholipids was investigated in monolayers at the air-water interface. Binary mixtures composed of GSLs, chosen to span...

Simunovic M, Saric A, Henderson J, Lee K, Voth G
ACS Cent Sci . 2018 Jan; 3(12):1246-1253. PMID: 29296664
Biological membranes have a central role in mediating the organization of membrane-curving proteins, a dynamic process that has proven to be challenging to probe experimentally. Using atomic force microscopy, we...

Tietjen G, Baylon J, Kerr D, Gong Z, Henderson J, Heffern C, et al.
Biophys J . 2017 Oct; 113(7):1505-1519. PMID: 28978444
The dynamic nature of lipid membranes presents significant challenges with respect to understanding the molecular basis of protein/membrane interactions. Consequently, there is relatively little known about the structural mechanisms by...

Gong Z, Kerr D, Hwang H, Henderson J, Suwatthee T, Slaw B, et al.
Rev Sci Instrum . 2017 Apr; 88(3):033112. PMID: 28372410
Total reflection x-ray fluorescence (TXRF) is a widely applicable experimental technique for studying chemical element distributions across finely layered structures at extremely high sensitivity. To promote and facilitate scientific discovery...

Kosif I, Kratz K, You S, Bera M, Kim K, Leahy B, et al.
ACS Nano . 2017 Jan; 11(2):1292-1300. PMID: 28085248
We report the results of cross-linking of two-dimensional gold nanoparticle (Au-NP) assemblies at the air-water interface in situ. We introduce an aqueous soluble ruthenium benzylidene catalyst into the water subphase...

Henderson J, Waring A, Separovic F, Lee K
Biophys J . 2016 Nov; 111(10):2176-2189. PMID: 27851941
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a class of host-defense molecules that neutralize a broad range of pathogens. Their membrane-permeabilizing behavior has been commonly attributed to the formation of pores; however, with...

You S, Heffern C, Dai Y, Meron M, Henderson J, Bu W, et al.
J Phys Chem B . 2016 Jul; 120(34):9132-41. PMID: 27459364
Amphiphilic phospholipids and nanoparticles functionalized with hydrophobic capping ligands have been extensively investigated for their capacity to self-assemble into Langmuir monolayers at the air/water interface. However, understanding of composite films...

Lenis J, Razavi S, Cao K, Lin B, Lee K, Tu R, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2015 Nov; 137(49):15370-3. PMID: 26588066
The compressional instability of particle-laden air/water interfaces is investigated with plain and surface-anisotropic (Janus) particles. We hypothesize that the amphiphilic nature of Janus particles leads to both anisotropic particle-particle and...

Clark G, Henderson J, Heffern C, Akgun B, Majewski J, Lee K
Langmuir . 2015 Oct; 31(46):12688-98. PMID: 26496486
We found that interactions of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) lipid monolayers with sugars are influenced by addition of NaCl. This work is of general importance in understanding how sugar-lipid-salt interactions impact biological...
