Binding and segregation of proteins in membrane adhesion: Theory, modelling, and simulations

Thomas R. Weikl, Jinglei Hu, Batuhan Kav +1

The adhesion of biomembranes is mediated by the binding of membrane-anchored receptor and ligand proteins. The proteins can only bind if the separation between apposing membranes i…

Bacterial swarmer cells in confinement: A mesoscale hydrodynamic simulation study

Thomas Eisenstecken, Jinglei Hu, Roland G. Winkler

A wide spectrum of Peritrichous bacteria undergo considerable physiological changes when they are inoculated onto nutrition-rich surfaces and exhibit a rapid and collective migrati…

Binding equilibrium and kinetics of membrane-anchored receptors and ligands in cell adhesion: insights from computational model systems and theory

Thomas R. Weikl, Jinglei Hu, Guang-Kui Xu +1

The adhesion of cell membranes is mediated by the binding of membrane-anchored receptor and ligand proteins. In this article, we review recent results from simulations and theory t…

Binding kinetics of membrane-anchored receptors and ligands: molecular dynamics simulations and theory

Jinglei Hu, Guang-Kui Xu, Reinhard Lipowsky +1

The adhesion of biological membranes is mediated by the binding of membrane-anchored receptor and ligand proteins. Central questions are how the binding kinetics of these proteins…

Binding constants of membrane-anchored receptors and ligands: a general theory corroborated by Monte Carlo simulations

Guang-Kui Xu, Jinglei Hu, Reinhard Lipowsky +1

Adhesion processes of biological membranes that enclose cells and cellular organelles are essential for immune responses, tissue formation, and signaling. These processes depend se…

Modelling the Mechanics and Hydrodynamics of Swimming E. coli

Jinglei Hu, Mingcheng Yang, Gerhard Gompper +1

The swimming properties of an E. coli-type model bacterium are investigated by mesoscale hy- drodynamic simulations, combining molecular dynamics simulations of the bacterium with…
