Abstract: | Nearest-neighbor recognition experiments, which have been carried out under fluidizing and condensing conditions, using exchangeable dimers derived from 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine, 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine, and cholesterol, have provided strong evidence that sterol-phospholipid recognition is limited to the liquid-ordered phase. |
