Update of the CHARMM all-atom additive force field for lipids: validation on six lipid types.
    The journal of physical chemistry. B, 2010, Jun-17, Volume: 114, Issue:23

    A significant modification to the additive all-atom CHARMM lipid force field (FF) is developed and applied to phospholipid bilayers with both choline and ethanolamine containing head groups and with both saturated and unsaturated aliphatic chains. Motivated by the current CHARMM lipid FF (C27 and C27r) systematically yielding values of the surface area per lipid that are smaller than experimental estimates and gel-like structures of bilayers well above the gel transition temperature, selected torsional, Lennard-Jones and partial atomic charge parameters were modified by targeting both quantum mechanical (QM) and experimental data. QM calculations ranging from high-level ab initio calculations on small molecules to semiempirical QM studies on a 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) bilayer in combination with experimental thermodynamic data were used as target data for parameter optimization. These changes were tested with simulations of pure bilayers at high hydration of the following six lipids: DPPC, 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-phosphatidylcholine (DMPC), 1,2-dilauroyl-sn-phosphatidylcholine (DLPC), 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-phosphatidylcholine (POPC), 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-phosphatidylcholine (DOPC), and 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-phosphatidylethanolamine (POPE); simulations of a low hydration DOPC bilayer were also performed. Agreement with experimental surface area is on average within 2%, and the density profiles agree well with neutron and X-ray diffraction experiments. NMR deuterium order parameters (S(CD)) are well predicted with the new FF, including proper splitting of the S(CD) for the aliphatic carbon adjacent to the carbonyl for DPPC, POPE, and POPC bilayers. The area compressibility modulus and frequency dependence of (13)C NMR relaxation rates of DPPC and the water distribution of low hydration DOPC bilayers also agree well with experiment. Accordingly, the presented lipid FF, referred to as C36, allows for molecular dynamics simulations to be run in the tensionless ensemble (NPT), and is anticipated to be of utility for simulations of pure lipid systems as well as heterogeneous systems including membrane proteins.

Effect of ion-binding and chemical phospholipid structure on the nanomechanics of lipid bilayers studied by force spectroscopy.
    Biophysical journal, 2005, Volume: 89, Issue:3

    The nanomechanical response of supported lipid bilayers has been studied by force spectroscopy with atomic force microscopy. We have experimentally proved that the amount of ions present in the measuring system has a strong effect on the force needed to puncture a 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine bilayer with an atomic force microscope tip, thus highlighting the role that monovalent cations (so far underestimated, e.g., Na(+)) play upon membrane stability. The increase in the yield threshold force has been related to the increase in lateral interactions (higher phospholipid-phospholipid interaction, decrease in area per lipid) promoted by ions bound into the membrane. The same tendency has also been observed for other phosphatidylcholine bilayers, namely, 2-dilauroyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, and 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-3-phosphocholine, and also for phosphatidylethanolamine bilayers such as 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-3-phosphoethanolamine. Finally, this effect has been also tested on a natural lipid bilayer (Escherichia coli lipid extract), showing the same overall tendency. The kinetics of the process has also been studied, together with the role of water upon membrane stability and its effect on membrane nanomechanics. Finally, the effect of the chemical structure of the phospholipid molecule on the nanomechanical response of the membrane has also been discussed.
