摘要
An azobenzene-modified cholesterol was designed and synthesized for photo-induced domain transformation in lipid bilayer membranes. Upon UV-light irradiation, the cholesterol derivative changes the conformation through photoisomerization of the azobenzene moiety from trans- to cis-form. The photoisomerization effectively occurred both in liquid-ordered (L-o) and liquid-disordered (L-d) phases. Phase-contrast and fluorescence microscopic observation revealed that photoisomerization of the azobenzene-modified cholesterol induced the shape transformation of giant unilamellar vesicle (GUV) and the reorganization of L-o domain structure. Such a photo-induced transformation of lipid domain gave two different pathways dependent on the lipid composition of GUV; disappearance of the L-o domain or appearance of a small L-d domain with in the L-o domain.
