520 |a 1-Palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC), a lipid comprising a saturated and an unsaturated acyl chain, belongs to the class of glycerophosphatidylcholines, major lipids in eukaryotic cell membranes. To get insight into the structural properties of this lipid within monolayers as membrane models, we performed molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of POPC monolayers under compression at the air/water interface. MD simulations were carried out at 300 K and at different surface pressures using the all-atom general Amber force field (GAFF). A good agreement was found between the simulated data and experimental isotherms. At surface pressures greater than 15 mN/m, two orientations of the head groups clearly appear: one nearly parallel to the monolayer interface and another one pointing toward the water. On the basis of the analysis of headgroup dihedral angles, we propose that the conformational variations around the bonds connecting the phosphorus atom to the adjacent oxygens are involved in these two orientations of the headgroup. The glycerol group orientation is characterized by a large distribution centered around 50° with respect to the monolayer normal. The acyl chains are predominantly in trans configuration from 7.5 to 43 mN/m surface pressures. Moreover, the calculated order parameter profiles of both chains suggest an independent behavior of the saturated and unsaturated chains that could be correlated with the formation of chain-type clusters observed along the simulated trajectories
