Abstract:Studying membrane dynamics is important to understand the cellular response to environmental stimuli. A decisive spatial characteristic of the plasma membrane is its compartmental structure created by the actin-based membrane-skeleton (fences) and anchored transmembrane proteins (pickets). Particle-based reaction–diffusion simulation of the membrane offers a suitable temporal and spatial resolution to analyse its spatially heterogeneous and stochastic dynamics. Fences have been modelled via hop probabilities, … Show more
