Abstract: 

The identification of a dominant mode in the delivery of proteins to a cell's membrane can strongly suggest the processes taking place throughout the cell, with particular regard to energy and resource expenditures. The limited resolution in current experimental and observational methods obscures the visual differences between the two. By solving the diffusion equation on various manifolds, I model the delivery process and identify key dynamical features that may provide distinctions between the delivery modes in the laboratory setting
