Annual Meeting of the German Biophysical Society (DGfB)

Gottingen, Germany
Aiming to present the most fascinating and current research from our three sections – Molecular Biophysics, Membranes, Cells, Networks and Medical Biophysics, our goal is also to report on the application of novel biophysical methods.

  3. ESR3-D: Monte Carlo simulations of lipid membranes and their interactions with copolymers Theoretical physics, theory in soft matter, computer simulations Contact Ankush Checkervarty Objectives The challenge of this project is to rationalize the inter effective interactions between amphiphilic copolymers and self-organized lipid bilayer membranes using coarse-grained Monte Carlo methods: Analyze the effect of many copolymers interacting with a fluctuating membrane Finding copolymer sequences which match particular tasks such as increasing permeation or disruption Simulating membranes [...]...
  4. Dual modes of antitumor action of an amphiphilic peptide A9K Hai Xu, Cui Xia Chen, Jing Hua, Peng Zhou, Ping Zeng, Chang Hai Cao, Jian Ren Lu Biomaterials, 34, 2731-2737 (2013) Following our recent report of attractive antibacterial properties of a designed amphiphilic peptide, A9K, we have investigated its antitumor activities by examining the modes of its action against different mammalian cell types. The peptide strongly inhibited [...]...
