Phospholipid Chain Interactions with Cholesterol Drive Domain Formation in Lipid Membranes

Cholesterol is a key component of eukaryotic membranes, but its role in cellular biology in general and in lipid rafts in particular remains controversial. Model membranes are used extensively to determine the phase behavior of ternary mixtures of cholesterol, a saturated lipid, and an unsaturated l...
