Did you know there are more than bilayer #membranes in nature? Meet the #archaeal monolayer and its surprising mechanical properties! New #preprint! (1/7)

I sit across from @v_sorichetti . He charges brushes the right way. Maybe his preprint can recharge your scientific batteries and brush up your cg simulation skills. Find out?

Modelling real word-like archaeal membranes by mixing bolalipids with a small fraction of bilayer lipids, we get membranes that are easy to bend and are stable at high T. (6/7)

Taken together, we find membrane tradeoff design principles evolved in extremophiles - stability vs reshapeability - that can be valuable for (bio)technological applications. (7/7) 🙏 @sciFelixFrey , @xiuyun_jiang , @BaumBuzz @SaricLab preprint → doi.org/10.1101/2024.10.18.6…
