Lipid packing and cholesterol content regulate membrane wetting and remodeling by biomolecular condensates.

Agustín Mangiarotti, Elias Sabri, Kita Valerie Schmidt…·Rumiana Dimova

This study shows that lipid packing and cholesterol content influence condensate-membrane interactions, with increased packing reducing condensate affinity.

Adhesion energy controls lipid binding-mediated endocytosis

Raluca Groza, Kita Valerie Schmidt, Paul Markus Müller…·Helge Ewers

The paper shows that multivalent lipid binding by globular particles induces membrane deformation and clathrin-independent endocytosis, with adhesion energy determining the threshold for internalization.
