Reconstitution of circadian clock in synthetic cells reveals principles of timekeeping
Nature CommunicationsThe cyanobacterial circadian clock maintains remarkable precision and synchrony, even in cells with femtoliter volumes. Here, we reconstitute the KaiABC post-translational oscillator (PTO) in giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) to investigate underlying ...

Transport of solid bodies along tubular membrane tethers.
PLoS ONE, 2019 We study the crucial role of membrane fluctuations in maintaining a narrow gap between a fluid membrane tube and an enclosed solid particle. Solvent flows can occur in this gap, hence giving rise to a finite particle mobility along the tube.

Interaction of a Polyarginine Peptide with Membranes of Different Mechanical Properties
Biomolecules, 2019 The membrane translocation efficiency of cell penetrating peptides (CPPs) has been largely studied, and poly-arginines have been highlighted as particularly active CPPs, especially upon negatively charged membranes. Here we inquire about the influence of

Determination of biomembrane bending moduli in fully atomistic simulations. [PDF]
, 2014 The bilayer bending modulus (Kc) is one of the most important physical constants characterizing lipid membranes, but precisely measuring it is a challenge, both experimentally and computationally.

A novel minimal in vitro system for analyzing HIV-1 Gag mediated budding
, 2014 A biomimetic minimalist model membrane was used to study the mechanism and kinetics of cell-free in vitro HIV-1 Gag budding from a giant unilamellar vesicle (GUV).

Charge-induced phase separation in lipid membranes [PDF]
, 2014 The phase separation in lipid bilayers that include negatively charged lipids is examined experimentally. We observed phase-separated structures and determined the membrane miscibility temperatures in several binary and ternary lipid mixtures of ...

Biomimetic Iridescent Skin: Robust Prototissues Spontaneously Assembled from Photonic Protocells
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 26, 30 March 2026.Uniform nanoparticles are induced to form arrays (photonic crystals) in the cores of biopolymer capsules, endowing these ‘protocells’ with structural color. These protocells are then assembled into large self‐standing objects, i.e., prototissues, with robust mechanical properties as well as iridescent optical properties.

Vesicle dynamics in elongation flow: Wrinkling instability and bud formation
, 2007 We present experimental results on the relaxation dynamics of vesicles subjected to a time-dependent elongation flow. We observed and characterized a new instability, which results in the formation of higher order modes of the vesicle shape (wrinkles ...

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.Phosphorylation of Optineurin by TBK1 induces the formation of filaments that condensate upon binding to linear polyubiquitin. Membrane‐anchored LC3 partitions into these condensates, suggesting that phase separation of filamentous Optineurin with ubiquitylated cargo promotes the sequestration of cargo and its subsequent alignment with LC3‐positive ...

Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction in Giant Unilamellar Vesicles
Scientific Reports, 2018 We assessed the applicability of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) for RNA detection using in vesicle reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).
