Intercellular Receptor–Ligand Binding and Thermal Fluctuations Facilitate Receptor Aggregation in Adhering Membranes

[Image: see text] Nanoscale molecular clusters in cell membranes can serve as platforms to recruit membrane proteins for various biological functions. A central question is how these nanoclusters respond to physical contacts between cells. Using a statistical mechanics model and Monte Carlo simulati...
