    • 3D structure of a Brucella melitensis porin: molecular modelling in lipid membranes 

      Lopes Rodrigues, Maximilien; Zanuy Gomara, David; Alemán Llansó, Carlos; Michaux, Catherine Anne Gisèle; Perpète, Eric A. (2018-01-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      Brucella melitensis is a pathogenic bacterium responsible for brucellosis in mammals and humans. Its outer membrane proteins (Omp) control the diffusion of solutes through the membrane, and they consequently have a crucial ...

    • Free-standing flexible and biomimetic hybrid membranes for ions and ATP transport 

      Molina García, Brenda Guadalupe; Lopes Rodrigues, Maximilien; Estrany Coda, Francesc; Michaux, Catherine Anne Gisèle; Perpète, Eric A.; Armelín Diggroc, Elaine Aparecida; Alemán Llansó, Carlos (2020-03-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      The transport of metabolites across robust, flexible and free-standing biomimetic membranes made of three perforated poly (lactic acid) (pPLA) layers, separated by two anodically polymerized conducting layers of poly ...

    • Influence of the surrounding environment in re-naturalized ß-barrel membrane proteins 

      Lopes Rodrigues, Maximilien; Triguero Enguídanos, Jordi; Torras Costa, Juan; Perpète, Eric A.; Michaux, Catherine Anne Gisèle; Alemán Llansó, Carlos; Zanuy Gomara, David (2018-03-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      © 2017 Elsevier B.V. Outer-membrane porins are currently being used to prepare bioinspired nanomembranes for selective ion transport by immobilizing them into polymeric matrices. However, the fabrication of these ...

    • Self-standing, conducting and capacitive biomimetic hybrid nanomembranes for selective molecular ion separation 

      Puiggalí Bellalta, Jordi; Molina García, Brenda Guadalupe; Lopes Rodrigues, Maximilien; Michaux, Catherine Anne Gisèle; Perpète, Eric A.; Zanuy Gomara, David; Alemán Llansó, Carlos (Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2021-08-14)
      Article
      Open Access
      Hybrid free-standing biomimetic materials are developed by integrating the VDAC36 ß-barrel protein into robust and flexible three-layered polymer nanomembranes. The first and third layers are prepared by spin-coating a ...

    • Smart hybrid nanomaterials for biomimetic membranes 

      Lopes Rodrigues, Maximilien (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2019-11-11)
      Doctoral thesis
      Open Access
      This thesis focuses on the preparation of nanomaterials made of proteins and polymers. Even though the technology has advanced in the last decades to design new devices at the atomic scale, researchers are still inspired ...

    • Structural and functional characterization of Solanum tuberosum VDAC36 

      Lopes Rodrigues, Maximilien; Matagne, André; Zanuy Gomara, David; Alemán Llansó, Carlos; Perpète, Eric A.; Michaux, Catherine Anne Gisèle (2020-06-24)
      Article
      Open Access
      As it forms water-filled channel in the mitochondria outer membrane and diffuses essential metabolites such as NADH and ATP, the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) protein family plays a central role in all eukaryotic ...

    • Thermomechanical response of a representative porin for biomimetics 

      Lopes Rodrigues, Maximilien; Puiggalí Jou, Anna; Martí Ballesté, Dídac; Valle Mendoza, Luis Javier del; Michaux, Catherine Anne Gisèle; Perpète, Eric A.; Alemán Llansó, Carlos (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2018-07-31)
      Article
      Open Access
      The thermomechanical response of Omp2a, a representative porin used for the fabrication of smart biomimetic nanomembranes, has been characterized using microcantilever technology and compared with standard proteins. For ...
