Chemical Kinetics and Mass Action in Coexisting Phases
Jonathan Bauermann, Sudarshana Laha, Patrick M. McCall +2
The kinetics of chemical reactions are determined by the law of mass action, which has been successfully applied to homogeneous, dilute mixtures. At non-dilute conditions, interact…
Thermodynamics of Wetting, Prewetting and Surface Phase Transitions with Surface Binding
Xueping Zhao, Giacomo Bartolucci, Alf Honigmann +2
In living cells, protein-rich condensates can wet the cell membrane and surfaces of membrane-bound organelles. Interestingly, many phase-separating proteins also bind to membranes…
Controlling composition of coexisting phases via molecular transitions
G. Bartolucci, O. Adame-Arana, X. Zhao +1
Phase separation and transitions among different molecular states are ubiquitous in living cells. Such transitions can be governed by local equilibrium thermodynamics or by active…
