Thermal energy, lipid hydrocarbon chain

Small-angle X-ray diffraction was used to identify the time-averaged location of amiodarone in a synthetic lipid bilayer. The drug was located about 6 A from the center of the lipid bilayer (Figure 4.13) [125, 126]. A dielectric constant of k = 2, which is similar to that of the bilayer hydrocarbon region, was used to calculate the minimum energy conformation of amiodarone bound to the membrane. The studies were performed below the thermal phase transition and at relatively low hydration of lipid. The calculated conformation differed from that of the crystal structure of amiodarone. Even though the specific steric effects of the lipid acyl chains on the confor-... [Pg.203]
