dsDNA persistence length with divalent ions

Manoel Manghi, Audrey Denis, Nicolas Destainville +2

Finding a theoretical formula for the persistence length of polyelectrolytes for the whole experimental range of salt concentration is a long standing challenge. Using the Tethered…

Boundary fluctuation dynamics of a phase-separated domain in planar geometry

Nicolas Destainville, Nelly Coulonges

Using theories of phase ordering kinetics and of renormalization group, we derive analytically the relaxation times of the long wave-length fluctuations of a phase-separated domain…

Protein over-expression can induce the elongation of cell membrane nanodomains

Julie Cornet, Pascal Preira, Laurence Salomé +5

In cell membranes, proteins and lipids are organized into sub-micrometric nanodomains of varying size, shape and composition, performing specific functions. Despite their biologica…

Domain formation in bicomponent vesicles induced by composition-curvature coupling

Julie Cornet, Nicolas Destainville, Manoel Manghi

Lipid vesicles composed of a mixture of two types of lipids are studied by intensive Monte-Carlo numerical simulations. The coupling between the local composition and the membrane…

Dependence of DNA persistence length on ionic strength and ion type

Sébastien Guilbaud, Laurence Salomé, Nicolas Destainville +2

Even though the persistence length of double-stranded DNA plays a pivotal role in cell biology and nanotechnologies, its dependence on ionic strength lacks a consensual d…
