Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the current study, the membrane tension and the diffusion coefficients of free-standing black lipid membranes (BLMs) were observed by systematic control of the cholesterol concentration and the osmotic pressure with the laser induced surface deformation (LISD) and fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) techniques. When the osmotic pressure was raised, both the membrane tension and diffusion coefficients increased as well. On the other hand, when the cholesterol concentration was raised, the membrane tension increased whereas the diffusion coefficient decreased. The results are not only important as the quantitative evaluations about relations between membrane tension and fluidity, but also important as the fundamental properties of lipid bilayers with natural fluctuations and perturbative deformation that were unavailable before.
