Probing the structure by phase-controlled stroboscopic x-ray pulses we find that the internal lipid bilayer electron density profile oscillates in response to the externally driven motion of the lipid film. The structural response to the well-controlled motion is a strong indication that bilayer structure and membrane fluctuations are intrinsically coupled, even though these structural changes are averaged out in equilibrium and time integrating measurements.

X-ray scattering in combination with heavy-atom labeling is a powerful and highly appropriate method to reveal the position of a certain amino acid residue within a lipid bilayer with respect to the membrane normal axis up to a resolution of several Angstrom. Herein, we report the synthesis of a new iodine-labeled amino acid building block. This building block is intended for peptide incorporation to provide high intensities for electron density difference analysis of X-ray reflectivity data and improve the labeling potential for the lipid bilayer head-group and water region. The novel building block as well as the commercially available non-iodinated analogue, required for X-ray scattering, was implemented in a transmembrane peptide motif via manual solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) following the fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc)-strategy. The derived peptides were reconstituted in lipid vesicles as well as in highly aligned multilamellar lipid stacks and investigated via circular dichroism (CD) and X-ray reflectivity. Thereby, it has been revealed that the bulky iodine probe neither causes conformational change of the peptide structure nor lamellar disordering of the membrane complexes."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1002/cphc.200900241"],["dc.identifier.gro","3143086"],["dc.identifier.isi","000267928100032"],["dc.identifier.pmid","19565579"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/561"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","WoS Import 2017-03-10 / Funder: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft [SFB 803]"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.relation.issn","1439-4235"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Institut für Röntgenphysik"],["dc.relation.workinggroup","RG Salditt (Structure of Biomolecular Assemblies and X-Ray Physics)"],["dc.subject.gro","x-ray scattering"],["dc.subject.gro","membrane biophysics"],["dc.title","A Novel Heavy-Atom Label for Side-Specific Peptide Iodination: Synthesis, Membrane Incorporation and X-ray Reflectivity"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Molecular-dynamics-based structural refinement, incorporating the IR-derived orientational restraints points to the formation of a helical hairpin structure. Disulfide cross-linking and X-ray reflectivity depth profiling provide independent support of the results. The unusually short helical hairpin structure of the protein might explain its ability to deform bilayers and is reminiscent of other peptides with membrane disrupting fiinctionalities.

High resolution structure analysis of model membrane systems by x-ray reflectivity is typically performed using stabilizing solid supports, which have shown to strongly interact with the membranes and can severly affect the membrane`s functionality. To circumvent these restrictions free-standing lipid model membranes, also called Black Lipid Membranes (BLMs), have been used in this work towards a novel type of structural assay based on x-ray phase contrast imaging. Bulged lipid bilayers fully immersed in buffer solution have been visualized by a transmitted plane or spherical x-ray wave front in the Fresnel regime after free space propagation. The development of the experimental system and the image analysis enables a quantitative investigation of the membrane`s structural properties in a localized membrane patch. In future this technique can be used to study the structure of membranes and more generally ultrathin films in functional and physiological environments and under out-of-equilibrium conditions."],["dc.format.extent","III, 140"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.17875/gup2011-108"],["dc.identifier.isbn","978-3-941875-96-8"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/6361"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/14583"],["dc.identifier.urn","urn:nbn:de:gbv:7-isbn-978-3-941875-96-8-3"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Migrated from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.publisher","Universitätsverlag Göttingen"],["dc.publisher.place","Göttingen"],["dc.relation.crisseries","Göttingen Series in X-Ray Physics"],["dc.relation.ispartofseries","Göttingen Series in x-ray Physics; 01"],["dc.rights","CC BY-NC-ND 3.0"],["dc.rights.access","openAccess"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/2.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.subject.ddc","530"],["dc.title","Black lipid membranes studied by x-ray phase contrast imaging"],["dc.type","thesis"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
