- Line-Tension Controlled Mechanism for Influenza Fusion Herre Jelger Risselada, Giovanni Marelli, Marc Fuhrmans, Yuliya G. Smirnova, Helmut Grubmüller, Siewert Jan Marrink, Marcus Müller PLoS ONE 7(6): e38302 (2012) Our molecular simulations reveal that wild-type influenza fusion peptides are able to stabilize a highly fusogenic pre-fusion structure, i.e. a peptide bundle formed by four or more trans-membrane arranged fusion peptides. We rationalize that the [...]...
- Exploring thermodynamic stability of the stalk fusion-intermediate with three-dimensional self-consistent field theory calculations Kostas Ch. Daoulas, Marcus Müller Soft Matter, 9, 4097-4102 (2013) The prospects of compressible Self-Consistent Field (SCF) theory schemes for describing structures in amphiphilic membranes are illustrated by considering the thermodynamic stability of hourglass-shaped, hydrophobic connections (stalks) between apposed bilayers. The membranes are represented by a coarse-grained, solvent-free model. We represent the chain architecture [...]...
