Biomembranes undergo complex, non-axisymmetric deformations governed by Kirchhoff-Love kinematics and revealed by a three dimensional computational framework
Debabrata Auddya, Xiaoxuan Zhang, Rahul Gulati +4
Biomembranes play a central role in various phenomena like locomotion of cells, cell-cell interactions, packaging of nutrients, and in maintaining organelle morphology and function…
Applications and Challenges of Machine Learning to Enable Realistic Cellular Simulations
Ritvik Vasan, Meagan P. Rowan, Christopher T. Lee +3
In this perspective, we examine three key aspects of an end-to-end pipeline for realistic cellular simulations: reconstruction and segmentation of cellular structures; generation o…
A mechanical model reveals that non-axisymmetric buckling lowers the energy barrier associated with membrane neck constriction
Ritvik Vasan, Shiva Rudraraju, Matthew Akamatsu +2
Membrane neck formation is essential for scission, which, as recent experiments on tubules have demonstrated, can be location dependent. The diversity of biological machinery that…
The role of traction in membrane curvature generation
Haleh Alimohamadi, Ritvik Vasan, Julian E. Hassinger +2
Curvature in biological membranes can be generated by a variety of different molecular mechanisms such as protein scaffolding, lipid or protein asymmetry, cytoskeletal forces, etc.…
