Molecular simulation of rapid translocation of cholesterol, diacylglycerol, and ceramide in model raft and nonraft membranes
The translocation of lipids across membranes (flip-flop) is an important biological process. Slow exchange on a physiological timescale allows the creation of asymmetric distributions of lipids across cellular membranes. The location of lipids and their rate of exchange have important biological con...
