Effect of Cholesterol on the Structure of a Five-Component Mitochondria-Like Phospholipid Membrane

Effect of Cholesterol on the Structure of a Five-Component Mitochondria-Like Phospholipid Membrane

Cellular membranes have a complex phospholipid composition that varies greatly depending on the organism, cell type and function. In spite of this complexity, most structural data available for phospholipid bilayers concern model systems containing only one or two different phospholipids. Here, we e...
