From shallow to full wrapping: geometry and deformability dictate lipid vesicle internalization
Stijn van der Ham, Alexander Brown, Halim Kusumaatmaja +1
The deformability of vesicles critically influences their engulfment by lipid membranes, a process central to endocytosis, viral entry, drug delivery, and intercellular transport.…
