Mechanics of dynamin-mediated membrane fission

S Morlot, A Roux - Annual review of biophysics, 2013 - annualreviews.org
In eukaryotic cells, membrane compartments are split into two by membrane fission. This
ensures discontinuity of membrane containers and thus proper compartmentalization. The …

Direct cytoskeleton forces cause membrane softening in red blood cells

R Rodríguez-García, I López-Montero, M Mell, G Egea… - Biophysical journal, 2015 - cell.com
Erythrocytes are flexible cells specialized in the systemic transport of oxygen in vertebrates.
This physiological function is connected to their outstanding ability to deform in passing …

Lift force in odd compressible fluids

R Lier, C Duclut, S Bo, J Armas, F Jülicher, P Surówka - Physical Review E, 2023 - APS
When a body moves through a fluid, it can experience a force orthogonal to its movement
called lift force. Odd viscous fluids break parity and time-reversal symmetry, suggesting the …

Diffusion of complex objects embedded in free and supported lipid bilayer membranes: role of shape anisotropy and leaflet structure

BA Camley, FLH Brown - Soft Matter, 2013 - pubs.rsc.org
We present a versatile numerical scheme to predict diffusion coefficients for arbitrarily
shaped objects embedded in lipid bilayer membranes. Diffusion coefficients for micron-scale …

trans-Golgi network-bound cargo traffic

P Makaraci, K Kim - European journal of cell biology, 2018 - Elsevier
Cargo following the retrograde trafficking are sorted at endosomes to be targeted the trans-
Golgi network (TGN), a central receiving organelle. Though molecular requirements and …

Viscoelastic deformation of lipid bilayer vesicles
