Résumé
Methodology for extracting the spontaneous curvature, bending modulus, and neutral surface of a lipid bilayer is described. The "SPEX" method is a robust technique for computing the bilayer bending modulus while allowing for resolution of the spontaneous curvature of specific interacting lipids and complexes, and the dependence of spontaneous curvature on wavelength. The method is described referring to the publicly available MembraneAnalysis.jl software package.
