Structure and kinetics of capsule-liposome assembly. (a) Structure of the capsule liposome. The porous nanocapsule (red) is surrounded by a shell of DODA (blue) and a secondary shell of POPC (white). The three rings separate the capsule from DODA (inner), DODA from POPC (middle) and POPC from water (outer) according to the density plots, panel b. (b) Density of the porous nanocapsule (red), DODA (blue), POPC (black) and water (grey) versus radial distance from the center of the capsule. Dashed lines correspond to the location of the rings in panel a. Results of three independent runs are shown. (c,d) Density of DODA (blue) and POPC (green) beads versus time in three simulations. The densities were computed by averaging over the volume between the inner and middle (c) and middle and outer (d) rings.
