Biophysical Approaches for the Study of Membrane Structure, Part B, Volume 701 explores lipid membrane asymmetry and lateral heterogeneity. A burst of recent research has shown that bilayers whose leaflets differ in their physical properties-such as composition, phase state, or lateral stress-exhibit many fascinating new characteristics, but also pose a host of challenges related to their creation, characterization, simulation, and theoretical description. Chapters in this new release include Characterization of domain formation in complex membranes: Analyzing the bending modulus from simulations of complex membranes, The density-threshold affinity: Calculating lipid binding affinities from unbiased Coarse-Grain Molecular Dynamics simulations, and much more.
Additional sections cover Uncertainty quantification for trans-membrane stresses and moments from simulation, Using molecular dynamics simulations to generate small-angle scattering curves and cryo-EM images of proteoliposomes, Binary Bilayer Simulations for Partitioning Within Membranes, Modeling Asymmetric Cell Membranes at All-atom Resolution, Multiscale remodeling of biomembranes and vesicles, Building complex membranes with Martini 3, Predicting lipid sorting in curved bilayer membranes, Simulating asymmetric membranes using P21 periodic boundary conditions, and many other interesting topics.
