That finding suggests that line tension force has a key role in an array of cellular membrane-fission events that are associated with phase separation and condensate formation. Banani, S.
The versatility of this phase-transformable membrane opens up new possibilities for customizable gas separation. The team envisions a range of applications in which the membrane can be adapted to ...
The observation of phase separation in model bilayer mixtures, whether or not it reflects events in cell membranes, has the benefit that shifts of the phase boundary are thermodynamically well ...
The simulations in the upper right corner (high area fraction and high propulsion velocity) undergo phase separation into a dilute isotropic gas and a dense crystalline active solid. The simulations ...
