不对称双组分脂质结构域的出芽转变

Budding Transition of Asymmetric Two-component Lipid Domains

Jean Wolff, Shigeyuki Komura, David Andelman

摘要:

我们提出了一个模型,占萌芽过渡的不对称双组分脂质结构域,其中两个单层(小叶)有不同的平均组成由独立的化学势控制。假设在每个小叶中的局部曲率和局部脂质组成之间的耦合,我们讨论了不对称脂质域的形态和热力学行为。膜自由能包含三个贡献:弯曲能,线张力,和横向相分离的朗道自由能。在一个平均场处理,我们得到各种相图包含完全出芽,酒窝,和平坦的状态作为两个小叶组合物的函数。分析了系统的整体相行为,根据系统参数,相图分为单相区、两相区和三相区。特别是,我们预测不同形态的域,这可能是在多组分膜或囊泡中观察到的各种相共存区域。

英文摘要:

We propose a model that accounts for the budding transition of asymmetric two-component lipid domains, where the two monolayers (leaflets) have different average compositions controlled by independent chemical potentials. Assuming a coupling between the local curvature and local lipid composition in each of the leaflets, we discuss the morphology and thermodynamic behavior of asymmetric lipid domains. The membrane free-energy contains three contributions: the bending energy, the line tension, and a Landau free-energy for a lateral phase separation. Within a mean-field treatment, we obtain various phase diagrams containing fully budded, dimpled, and flat states as a function of the two leaflet compositions. The global phase behavior is analyzed, and depending on system parameters, the phase diagrams include one-phase, two-phase and three-phase regions. In particular, we predict various phase coexistence regions between different morphologies of domains, which may be observed in multi-component membranes or vesicles.
