Molecular packing, hydrophobic tail

It has recently been shown that introduction of a small, hydrophobic molecule like isoprene may lead to a more ordered and better packed lipid membrane as revealed by MD simulations. The stabilized membrane is then protected against temperature-induced disordering of the tails. Similar thermoprotective effects are induced by cholesterol which also increases the molecular packing of the tails and, in contrast to isoprene, affects the dynamics of the lipids in the bilayer. ... [Pg.428]
