Model of negative mean membrane curvature and negative Gaussian curvature generation by NEC MPR peptide-membrane interactions. Oligomerized NEC forces MPRs to work in concert and generate larger areas of negative mean curvature. Nonoligomerized NEC adopts a more flexible orientation and the MPRs generate negative Gaussian curvature to perform scission. All images created with BioRender.com.
