Push-pull mechanism for lipid raft formation
A quantitative assessment has been made of the interaction between exchangeable mimics of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) and cholesterol in the liquid-ordered (l0) and the liquid-disordered (ld) states using the nearest-neighbor recognition (NNR) method. This assessment has...

Zusammenfassung: | A quantitative assessment has been made of the interaction between exchangeable mimics of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) and cholesterol in the liquid-ordered (l0) and the liquid-disordered (ld) states using the nearest-neighbor recognition (NNR) method. This assessment has established that these lipids mix ideally in the l0 phase (i.e., they show no net attraction or repulsion toward each other) but exhibit repulsive interactions in the ld phase. The implications of these findings for the interactions between unsaturated phospholipids and cholesterol in eukaryotic cell membranes are briefly discussed |
