Multispherical shapes of vesicles with intramembrane domains

R Lipowsky - The European Physical Journal E, 2024 - Springer
Phase separation of biomembranes into two fluid phases, a and b, leads to the formation of
vesicles with intramembrane a-and b-domains. These vesicles can attain multispherical …

The many faces of membrane tension for biomembranes and vesicles

R Lipowsky - Faraday Discussions, 2024 - pubs.rsc.org
Membrane tension is generated by external forces and constraints that affect the
membrane's surface area. Many studies have been pursued to elucidate this intuitive …
