Fission of buds in liposomes with liquid-disordered phase membranes. a Fission of a bud at the liquid-ordered/liquid-disordered separation line upon heating from Inline graphic (i) to Inline graphic (ii). Vesicle composition 0.615:0.135:0.25 SM:DOPC:cholesterol. Inline graphic phase was imaged in blue by incorporating small amount of a Dil dye, Inline graphic phase was imaged in red by incorporating a small amount of N-lissamine rhodamine dipalmitoylphosphoethanolamine. Scale barInline graphic. b Fission of vesicle due to an encapsulation of an ATPS system. 0.35:0.35:0.3 POPC:DPPC:cholesterol vesicle encapsulating a PEG:dextran ATPS. Osmotic pressure increases form left to right. Blue indicates lectin SBA Alexa 647 (dextran phase); red indicates Inline graphic domain lipid (DOPE-rhodamine); and green indicates Inline graphic domain through streptavidin-Alexa488 (bound to the lipid DSPE-PEG-2K-biotin).
