This paper studies DNA nanomotifs anchored to lipid bilayers, showing they undergo two-dimensional phase separation based on sticky end interactions, independent of lipid phase separation.

The paper shows that the Drs2-Cdc50 flippase complex transports multiple anionic lipids, not just phosphatidylserine, and identifies the role of the water network in substrate recognition.

The paper demonstrates that dynamic actin networks can drive both inward and outward membrane deformations without membrane-associated proteins.
