Numerical studies of triangulated vesicles with anisotropic membrane inclusions
Yoav Ravid, Samo Penič, Nir Gov +3
In this study, we implement the deviatoric curvature model to examine dynamically triangulated surfaces with anisotropic membrane inclusions. The Monte-Carlo numerical scheme is de…

Modelling how curved active proteins and shear flow pattern cellular shape and motility
Shubhadeep Sadhukhan, Samo Penič, Aleš Iglič +1
Cell spreading and motility on an adhesive substrate are driven by the active physical forces generated by the actin cytoskeleton. We have recently shown that coupling curved membr…

Theoretical model of membrane protrusions driven by curved active proteins
Yoav Ravid, Samo Penič, Yuko Mimori-Kiyosue +3
Eukaryotic cells intrinsically change their shape, by changing the composition of their membrane and by restructuring their underlying cytoskeleton. We present here further studies…
