Abstract
Studying lipid-protein interactions is fundamental to understand the complex behavior of biological membranes. In these systems, membrane proteins affect the organization of lipid bilayers and thus their mechanical properties, and vice-versa the local lipid environment alters membrane-protein function. The most abundant membrane protein in the eye lens is aquaporin-0 (AQP0), with reported roles in water conduction, cell-cell adhesion, and cell organization. AQP0 is additionally an excellent system for the study of lipid-protein interactions.
