Sterols Have Higher Affinity for Sphingomyelin than for Phosphatidylcholine Bilayers even at Equal Acyl-Chain Order

The interaction between cholesterol and phospholipids in bilayer membranes is important for the formation and maintenance of membrane structure and function. However, cholesterol does not interact favorably with all types of phospholipids and, for example, prefers more ordered sphingomyelins (SMs) o...
