  • Title: Transmembrane Signaling with Lipid-Bilayer Assemblies as a Platform for Channel-Based Biosensing.
    Author: Sugawara M.
    Journal: Chem Rec; 2018 Apr; 18(4):433-444. PubMed ID: 29135061.
    Abstract:
    Artificial and natural lipid membranes that elicit transmembrane signaling is are useful as a platform for channel-based biosensing. In this account we summarize our research on the design of transmembrane signaling associated with lipid bilayer membranes containing nanopore-forming compounds. Channel-forming compounds, such as receptor ion-channels, channel-forming peptides and synthetic channels, are embedded in planar and spherical bilayer lipid membranes to develop highly sensitive and selective biosensing methods for a variety of analytes. The membrane-bound receptor approach is useful for introducing receptor sites on both planar and spherical bilayer lipid membranes. Natural receptors in biomembranes are also used for designing of biosensing methods.
