Domain growth in lipid membranes and the budding instability
Jean Wolff, Fabrice Thalmann, Carlos Marques +3
We investigate the growth of a circular domain in a phase-separating lipid membrane and its relation to the budding instability. We describe the in-plane dynamics with a conserved,…
Coexistences of lamellar phases in ternary surfactant solutions
Isamu Sou, Ryuichi Okamoto, Shigeyuki Komura +1
We theoretically investigate the coexistences of lamellar phases both in binary and ternary surfactant solutions. The previous free energy of a lamellar stack is extended to take i…
Budding Transition of Asymmetric Two-component Lipid Domains
Jean Wolff, Shigeyuki Komura, David Andelman
We propose a model that accounts for the budding transition of asymmetric two-component lipid domains, where the two monolayers (leaflets) have different average compositions contr…
Budding of domains in mixed bilayer membranes
Jean Wolff, Shigeyuki Komura, David Andelman
We propose a model that accounts for budding behavior of domains in lipid bilayers, where each of the bilayer leaflets has a coupling between its local curvature and local lipid co…
Thermodynamic Approach to Phase Coexistence in Ternary Phospholipi-Cholesterol Mixtures
Jean Wolff, Carlos M. Marques, Fabrice Thalmann
We introduce a simple and predictive model for determining the phase stability of ternary phospholipid-cholesterol mixtures. Assuming that competition between the liquid and gel or…
