Eukaryotic cells are highly compartmentalized into intracellular organelles, such as the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus, endosomes and lysosomes. These are dynamical structures bounded by lipid membranes, within which components undergo biochemical modification by enzymes, and between which components are constantly being exchanged. Despite their highly dynamical nature, their spatial organization is fairly well conserved over time, so that they could be seen as stationary states of a highly non-equilibrium, and multi-component system. On the other hand, this organization has been observed to be totally disorganized in pathologies or drug treatments. Self-organization in equilibrium systems is fairly well understood by means of ...
