Lipid clustering correlates with membrane curvature as revealed by molecular simulations of complex lipid bilayers.

Cell membranes are complex multicomponent systems, which are highly heterogeneous in the lipid distribution and composition. To date, most molecular simulations have focussed on relatively simple lipid compositions, helping to inform our understanding of in vitro experimental studies. Here we descri...
