Inspired by calcium-induced reversible assembly and disassembly of membrane proteins found in nature, here we developed a phosphorylated amphiphile (PA) that contains an oligo(phenylene-ethynylene) unit as a hydrophobic unit and...

This paper reviews recent progress in studies on the migration of charged species, including charged lipids, membrane-attached proteins and vesicles, and integrated membrane proteins, in lipid bilayer membranes under an external electric field. The migration of these charged substances is controlled by the interplay of electrophoresis and electroosmosis. This phenomenon can be employed to separate the charged lipids and membrane-attached proteins, and concentrate integrated membrane proteins.
