Domain aggregation and associated pore growth in lipid membranes by Liu, Yue, Zou, Guijin, Gao, Huajian

“…To help reveal and understand the underlying mechanisms, here we establish a theory to show that the deformation energy of the membrane tends to limit the growth of molecular domains on a lipid membrane, resulting in a characteristic domain size, and that the domain aggregation significantly reduces the energy barrier to pore growth. …”
