Figure 4

AFM images obtained in solution show a stabilizing influence of the DNA coating on the LUVs. Images and selected height profiles were acquired for (a) V (lateral scale bar: 2.5 μm), (b) VL (lateral scale bar: 2.5 μm), and (c) VLT1 (lateral scale bar: 1 μm). The white lines in the images indicate the positions of the line profiles shown in the panels underneath. (d) Young’s moduli of the three configurations of coated vesicles in dependence of the triskelion design (VLT1: 11.1 ± 0.5 kPa, VLT2: 8.2 ± 0.5 kPa, VLT3: 6.0 ± 0.6 kPa). The error bars correspond to the standard error of the mean of 10 measurements per hybrid vesicle design.
