Abstract

The cell membrane is an important organ of living cells, which has a complex structure influenced by the interaction between membrane proteins and cell membrane. On the basis of fluid motion and diffusion interaction, a simple model is proposed to evaluate quantitatively the effects of the protein size and membrane fluid velocity on the lateral diffusion of membrane proteins at the cell membrane. The study shows that the diffusion coefficient is a dominant factor on the lateral diffusion.
