To Close or to Collapse: The Role of Charges on Membrane Stability upon Pore Formation

Abstract Resealing of membrane pores is crucial for cell survival. Membrane surface charge and medium composition are studied as defining regulators of membrane stability. Pores are generated by electric field or detergents. Giant vesicles composed of zwitterionic and negatively charged lipids mixed...
