To explore the role of individual lung surfactant components in liquid-condensed (LC)/liquid-expanded (LE) phase transitions the MARTINI coarse-grained (CG) model is used to simulate monolayers containing DPPC and additional lipid or peptide components. Our analysis suggests that the LC phase forms from the LE phase via a nucleation and growth mechanism, while the LC–LE transition occurs by melting...
To explore the role of lung surfactant proteins SP-B and SP-C in storing and redelivering lipid from lipid monolayers during the compression and re-expansion occurring in lungs during breathing, we simulate the folding of lipid monolayers with and without these proteins. We utilize the MARTINI coarse-grained force field to simulate monolayers containing pure dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and...
