Chemotactic crawling of multivalent vesicles along ligand-density gradients
Hannah Sleath, Bortolo Mognetti, Yuval Elani +1
Living cells are capable of interacting with their environments in a variety of ways, including cell signalling, adhesion, and directed motion. These behaviours are often mediated…
Probing the mechanical properties of DNA nanostructures with metadynamics
W. T. Kaufhold, W. Pfeifer, C. E. Castro +1
Molecular dynamics simulations are often used to provide feedback in the design workflow of DNA nanostructures. However, even with coarse-grained models, convergence of distributio…
Steric interactions between mobile ligands facilitate complete wrapping in passive endocytosis
Lorenzo Di Michele, Pritam Kumar Jana, Bortolo Matteo Mognetti
Receptor-mediated endocytosis is an ubiquitous process through which cells internalize biological or synthetic nanoscale objects, including viruses, unicellular parasites, and nano…
Melting transition in lipid vesicles functionalised by mobile DNA linkers
S. J. Bachmann, J. Kotar, L. Parolini +4
We study phase behaviours of lipid--bilayer vesicles functionalised by ligand--receptor complexes made of synthetic DNA by introducing a modelling framework and a dedicated experim…
