Abstract:
In this article we review the current status of our understanding of membrane mediated interactions from theory and experiment. Phenomenological mean field and molecular models will be discussed and compared to recent experimental results from dynamical neutron scattering and atomic force microscopy.Keywords: Protein-protein interactions; membrane inclusions; lipid mediated interactions; membrane theory; membrane dynamics; neutron scattering; membrane mediated interactions; Phenomenological; dynamical neutron scattering; atomic force microscopy; Analytical Theories; Computer Supported Theories; Lateral Coupling; Cooperative Dynamics; Native Membrane Protein Bacteriorhodopsin; bilayer and monolayers; hydrophobic membrane; metastable state; Purple membrane; Neutron scattering; AFM; protein-distributed state; lipid-hydrocarbon density; phenomenological models; interfacial tension; hydrophobic amphiphile tails; Protein-protein interactions; membrane inclusions; lipid mediated interactions; membrane theory; membrane dynamics; neutron scattering; membrane mediated interactions; Phenomenological; dynamical neutron scattering; atomic force microscopy; Analytical Theories; Computer Supported Theories; Lateral Coupling

- Protein & Peptide Letters publishes short papers in all important aspects of protein and peptide research, including structural studies, recombinant expression, function, synthesis, enzymology, immunology, molecular modeling, drug design etc. Manuscripts must have a significant element of novelty, timeliness and urgency that merit rapid publication. Reports of crystallisation, and preliminary structure determinations of biologically important proteins are acceptable. Purely theoretical papers are also acceptable provided they provide new insight into the principles of protein/peptide structure and function.
