Clathrin Coated Vesicles01:12

Clathrin Coated Vesicles

8.0K
Clathrin-coated vesicles use endocytosis to transport receptors and lysosomal hydrolases from the Golgi to the lysosome in the late secretory pathway. Clathrin-mediated endocytosis was the first described endocytic process, and Clathrin-coated vesicles remain one of the most well-studied transport vesicles. The molecular machinery that generates clathrin-coated vesicles comprises over 50 proteins that precisely coordinate vesicle formation. Cell surface receptors concentrated in indented sites...

Cationic Chain-Growth Polymerization: Mechanism

2.1K
The cationic polymerization mechanism consists of three steps: initiation, propagation, and termination. In the initiation step of the polymerization process, the π bond of a monomer gets protonated by the Lewis acid catalyst, which is formed from boron trifluoride and water. The protonation of the π bond generates a carbocation stabilized by the electron‐donating group. In the propagation step, the π bond of the second monomer acts as a nucleophile and attacks the...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Biomaterials Engineering
  • Surface Chemistry

Background:

  • Cellulose ultrathin films are versatile materials with potential applications in biosensing and controlled drug delivery.
  • Developing methods for controlled protein immobilization on cellulose surfaces is crucial for advanced biomaterial applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To create matrices for controlled protein deposition by cationizing cellulose ultrathin films.
  • To investigate the impact of cationic cellulose derivatives on protein affinity and adsorption.
  • To establish a correlation between protein deposition amount and fluorescence intensity on patterned surfaces.

Main Methods:

  • Surface cationization of cellulose ultrathin films using tailor-made cationic celluloses.
  • Quantification of deposited bovine serum albumin (BSA) using quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) and multi-parameter surface plasmon resonance (MP-SPR).
  • Evaluation of coupled water mass via combined QCM-D and SPR data.
  • Preparation of patterned cellulose thin films and automated protein deposition.

Main Results:

  • Protein adsorption onto cationic cellulose surfaces can be tuned over a wide range (0.6-3.9 mg dry mass m⁻²) by adjusting adsorption conditions and cationic cellulose type.
  • BSA affinity is controllable via charge density and solubility of the cationic cellulose derivative.
  • A direct correlation was established between the amount of deposited fluorescently labeled BSA and fluorescence intensity on patterned films.

Conclusions:

  • Tailor-made cationic celluloses enable effective cationization of cellulose surfaces for controlled protein immobilization.
  • The developed method allows for tunable protein adsorption, offering precise control over biomaterial surface functionalization.
  • This approach facilitates the creation of patterned biomaterial surfaces with specific protein distributions for advanced applications.
