Assessment of active vesicle membrane fluctuations

POSTER

Abstract

Non-equilibrium fluctuations of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUV) are detected using laser interferometry. Protein driven active membrane fluctuations are resolved with exceptional resolution in a broad frequency range (0.1 Hz – 1000 Hz) and sub-nm resolution. This yields a deeper assessment into the non-equilibrium mechanics of GUV membranes.
