What is a lipid bilayer?A lipid consists of a hydrophilic
phosphate group head, and a
hydrophobic fatty acid tail.

Lipid Bilayers
Hydrophobic tails stick together to form liposomes, micelles, and bilayers (energetically favorable)
Lipid bilayers are what compose our cell membranes. Bilayers can be formed artificially as well.

Lipid Bilayers
Supported Lipid Bilayers Supported lipid bilayers are formed by collapsing liposomes onto a
hydrophilic substrate
Process is spontaneous

Lipid Bilayers
Transmembrane ProteinsOne of many functions of proteins is to transport molecules
and ions across the cell membrane
ATPase and Gramicidin are used in this project
ATP is used by ATPase in active transport of ions against concentration gradient

Why Different Substrates?Glass is standard, but non-conductive. Bottom electrode is
necessary to allow for electrical measurements.

– Uses the line profiles to measure rate of diffusion in both X and Y directions through use of Fast Fourier Transform
– Gave much smaller but inconsistent values
– Diffusion coefficient seemed too dependent on time

Forming a Vertical Bilayer: Separate two saline solution chambers
with thin Teflon
Poke hole through Teflon
Fill chambers with lipids
Change solution level of chambers on both side such that lipids “zip” across the hole in Teflon, forming a lipid bilayer
