Structures and pathways for clathrin self-assembly in the bulk and on membranes
Richard Matthews, Christos N. Likos
We present a coarse-grained model of clathrin that is simple enough to be computationally tractable yet includes key observed qualitative features: a triskelion structure with excl…
Influence of Rigidity and Knot Complexity on the Knotting of Confined Polymers
Peter Poier, Christos N. Likos, Richard Matthews
We employ computer simulations and thermodynamic integration to analyse the effects of bending rigidity and slit confinement on the free energy cost of tying knots, $ΔF_{\rm knotti…
Dynamics of Self-Assembly of Model Viral Capsids in the Presence of a Fluctuating Membrane
Richard Matthews, Christos N. Likos
A coarse-grained computational model is used to investigate the effect of a fluctuating fluid membrane on the dynamics of patchy-particle assembly into virus capsid-like cores. Res…
Effect of bending rigidity on the knotting of a polymer under tension
Richard Matthews, Ard A. Louis, Christos N. Likos
A coarse-grained computational model is used to investigate how the bending rigidity of a polymer under tension affects the formation of a trefoil knot. Thermodynamic integration t…
Influence of Fluctuating Membranes on Self-Assembly of Patchy Colloids
Richard Matthews, Christos N. Likos
A coarse-grained computational model is used to investigate the effect of a fluid membrane on patchy-particle assembly into biologically-relevant structures motivated by viral core…
Knot-controlled ejection of a polymer from a virus capsid
R Matthews, A. A. Louis, J. M. Yeomans
We present a numerical study of the effect of knotting on the ejection of flexible and semiflexible polymers from a spherical, virus-like capsid. The polymer ejection rate is prima…
