abstract = {Biological cells generate intricate structures by sculpting
their membrane from within to actively sense and respond to
external stimuli or to explore their environment1,2,3,4.
Several pathogenic bacteria also provide examples of how
localized forces strongly deform cell membranes from inside,
leading to the invasion of neighbouring healthy mammalian
cells5. Giant unilamellar vesicles have been successfully
used as a minimal model system with which to mimic
biological cells6,7,8,9,10,11, but the realization of a
minimal system with localized active internal forces that
can strongly deform lipid membranes from within and lead to
dramatic shape changes remains challenging. Here we present
a combined experimental and simulation study that
demonstrates how self-propelled particles enclosed in giant
unilamellar vesicles can induce a plethora of
non-equilibrium shapes and active membrane fluctuations.
Using confocal microscopy, in the experiments we explore the
membrane response to local forces exerted by self-phoretic
Janus microswimmers. To quantify dynamic membrane changes,
we perform Langevin dynamics simulations of active Brownian
particles enclosed in thin membrane shells modelled by
dynamically triangulated surfaces. The most pronounced shape
changes are observed at low and moderate particle loadings,
with the formation of tether-like protrusions and highly
branched, dendritic structures, whereas at high volume
fractions globally deformed vesicle shapes are observed. The
resulting state diagram predicts the conditions under which
local internal forces generate various membrane shapes. A
controlled realization of such distorted vesicle
morphologies could improve the design of artificial systems
such as small-scale soft robots and synthetic cells.},
