Protein-lipid interaction

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Interactions of lipids with peripheral membrane proteins
Interactions of lipids with transmembrane proteins

Protein-lipid interactions (also protein-lipid interactions ) are bonds between lipids and proteins , analogous to protein-protein interactions , protein-RNA interactions and protein-DNA interactions .

properties

Protein-lipid interactions are e.g. B. with proteins of lipid metabolism , with peripheral membrane proteins the binding to or with transmembrane proteins the storage in a biomembrane . In the case of cell-penetrating peptides , the mechanism of penetration of biomembranes is partly unknown.

Methods for studying protein-lipid interactions are e.g. B. ESR spectroscopy , dual polarization interferometry, fluorescence microscopy with fluorescence- labeled lipids or proteins or with lipid dyes such as laurdan or filipin . The binding of proteins has little effect on the arrangement of lipids in a biomembrane. The proteins myelin basic protein , spectrin and prions , like matrix proteins of enveloped viruses, can bind directly to lipids, while most peripheral membrane proteins are connected to the membrane via a post-translational modification with a lipid or via binding to transmembrane proteins.
