Studying Membrane Tubes with Positive and Negative Curvatures in Giant Vesicles

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Membrane tubes could be extruded both externally and internally from giant lipid vesicles using membrane-attached beads manipulated via optical trapping and controlled hydrodynamic flow. The technique has potential use for studying different membrane tubulation mechanisms.
