Theory of morphological transformation of viral capsid shells during maturation process
O. V. Konevtsova, V. L. Lorman, S. B. Rochal
In the frame of the Landau-Ginzburg formalism we propose a minimal phenomenological model for a morphological transformation in viral capsid shells. The transformation takes place…
Structures of Spherical Viral Capsids as Quasicrystalline Tilings
O. V. Konevtsova, V. L. Lorman, S. B. Rochal
Spherical viral shells with icosahedral symmetry have been considered as quasicrystalline tilings. Similarly to known Caspar-Klug quasi-equivalence theory, the presented approach a…
Instabilities and shape variation phase transitions in tubular lipid membranes
I. Yu. Golushko, S. B. Rochal, A. Parmeggiani +1
Changes of external parameters in proximity of critical point can increase thermal fluctuations of tubular lipid membrane (TLM) and result in variation of the membrane shape. The p…
