Elastic properties and shape of the Piezo dome underlying its mechanosensory function

We show in the companion paper that the free membrane shape of lipid bilayer vesicles containing the mechanosensitive ion channel Piezo can be predicted, with no free parameters, from membrane elasticity theory together with measurements of the protein geometry and vesicle size [C. A. Haselwandter,...
