Abstract
Approximate calculations show that the dynamics of the shape transitions observed in vesicle budding upon increasing the temperature as well as during recooling cannot be explained based on friction alone. Two additional mechanisms, (a) lateral segregation of lipid impurities and (b) van der Waals attraction of bud and mother vesicle, appear to be involved. Experiments are suggested to test the mechanism of lateral segregation.
