Stability of a biomembrane tube covered with proteins
M. Janssen, S. Liese, S. C. Al-Izzi, A. Carlson
The paper analyzes the stability of a biomembrane tube covered with proteins using a combination of linear stability analysis, hydrodynamic calculations, and a Helfrich-like model, showing that both long and short-wavelength perturbations can destabilize the tube.
