Coupling Anisotropic Curvature and Nematic Order: Mechanisms of Membrane Shape Remodeling
Yoav Ravid, Samo Penič, Luka Mesarec +4
This study theoretically investigates how anisotropic curved membrane components (CMCs) control vesicle morphology through curvature sensing, nematic alignment, topological defects…

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…

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…
