Agonist mobility on supported lipid bilayers affects Fas mediated death response
Extrinsic apoptosis is initiated by recognition and clustering of the single-pass transmembrane proteins Fas ligand and Fas expressed at the surface of closely apposed lymphocytes and target cells, respectively. Since Fas-mediated death response was mainly studied with soluble antibodies, the mobili...

| Sumario: | Extrinsic apoptosis is initiated by recognition and clustering of the single-pass transmembrane proteins Fas ligand and Fas expressed at the surface of closely apposed lymphocytes and target cells, respectively. Since Fas-mediated death response was mainly studied with soluble antibodies, the mobility constraints for receptor activation by a membrane embedded agonist is not well understood. We explored this influence by stimulating apoptosis on functionalized supported lipid bilayers, where we quantified agonist mobility by z-scan fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. Using different lipid compositions, we show that the apoptotic response correlates with increased lateral mobility of the agonist in the lipid bilayer. © 2015 Federation of European Biochemical Societies. |
