Coupling Phase Behavior of Fatty Acid Containing Membranes to Membrane Bio-Mechanics

Biological membranes constantly modulate their fluidity for proper functioning of the cell. Modulation of membrane properties via regulation of fatty acid composition has gained a renewed interest owing to its relevance in endocytosis, endoplasmic reticulum membrane homeostasis, and adaptation mecha...
