Orientational Phase Transitions and the Assembly of Viral Capsids
Sanjay Dharmavaram, Fangming Xie, William Klug +2
We present a generalized Landau-Brazovskii free energy for the solidification of chiral molecules on a spherical surface in the context of the assembly of viral shells. We encounte…
Bilayer-thickness-mediated interactions between integral membrane proteins
Osman Kahraman, Peter D. Koch, William S. Klug +1
Hydrophobic thickness mismatch between integral membrane proteins and the surrounding lipid bilayer can produce lipid bilayer thickness deformations. Experiment and theory have sho…
Architecture and Function of Mechanosensitive Membrane Protein Lattices
Osman Kahraman, Peter D. Koch, William S. Klug +1
Experiments have revealed that membrane proteins can form two-dimensional clusters with regular translational and orientational protein arrangements, which may allow cells to modul…
Signatures of protein structure in the cooperative gating of mechanosensitive ion channels
Osman Kahraman, William S. Klug, Christoph A. Haselwandter
Membrane proteins deform the surrounding lipid bilayer, which can lead to membrane-mediated interactions between neighboring proteins. Using the mechanosensitive channel of large c…
Landau Theory and the Emergence of Chirality in Viral Capsids
Sanjay Dharmavaram, Fangming Xie, William Klug +2
We present a generalized Landau-Brazovskii theory for the solidification of chiral molecules on a spherical surface. With increasing sphere radius one encounters first intervals wh…
The Affine-Nonaffine Transition in Anisotropic Semiflexible Networks
Andrew R. Missel, Mo Bai, William S. Klug +1
We study the mechanics of nematically ordered semiflexible networks showing that they, like isotropic networks, undergo an affine to non-affine cross-over controlled by the ratio o…
