Membrane-mediated interactions between disk-like inclusions adsorbed on vesicles
Frontiers in Physics, 2022 Self-assembly of membrane inclusions plays a key role in biological processes such as cellular signalling and trafficking and has potential applications for designing interfacial devices such as sensors and actuators.

Morphology of Nematic and Smectic Vesicles [PDF]
PNAS 2012 109 (14) 5202-5206, 2011 Recent experiments on vesicles formed from block copolymers with liquid-crystalline side-chains reveal a rich variety of vesicle morphologies. The additional internal order ("structure") developed by these self-assembled block copolymer vesicles can lead to significantly deformed vesicles as a result of the delicate interplay between two-dimensional ...

Cellular locations of proteinases and association with vesicles in
European Journal of Medical Research, 2010 We found that locations of arginine-specific gingipain (RGP) in the cellular fractions in the crude extract, envelope, vesicles, and culture supernatants were 48%, 16%, 17%, and 31%, respectively, and the corresponding values of lysine-specific gingipain

Two-dimensional Vesicle dynamics under shear flow: effect of confinement [PDF]
, 2011 Dynamics of a single vesicle under shear flow between two parallel plates is studied using two-dimensional lattice-Boltzmann simulations. We first present how we adapted the lattice-Boltzmann method to simulate vesicle dynamics, using an approach known ...

Autonomous movement of chemically powered vesicle [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 92, 042703 (2015), 2015 A mechanism for self propulsion of deformable vesicle has been proposed, vesicle moves by sensing the self-generated chemical gradient. Like many molecular motors they suffer strong perturbations from the environment in which they move as a result of thermal fluctuations and do not rely on inertia for their propulsion.

Vesicles in a Poiseuille flow [PDF]
, 2008 Vesicle dynamics in unbounded Poiseuille flow is analyzed using a small-deformation theory. Our analytical results quantitatively describe vesicle migration and provide new physical insights.

Microbiological Reviews, 1975 The gas vesicle is a hollow structure made of protein. It usually has the form of a cylindrical tube closed by conical end caps. Gas vesicles occur in five phyla of the Bacteria and two groups of the Archaea, but they are mostly restricted to planktonic microorganisms, in which they provide buoyancy.
