Simulations of Asymmetric Membranes Illustrate Cooperative Leaflet Coupling and Lipid Adaptability
Biological membranes are composed of lipid bilayers that are often asymmetric with regards to the lipid composition and/or aqueous solvent they separate. Studying lipid asymmetry both experimentally and computationally is challenging. Molecular dynamics simulations of lipid bilayers with asymmetry a...
