Permeability of membranes in the liquid ordered and liquid disordered phases
Increasing evidence supports the existence of ordered nanodomains (or rafts) in cholesterol rich cell membranes. Here authors present molecular dynamics simulations and EPR experiments to monitor permeation of oxygen and water through membranes in the liquid ordered and liquid disordered phases.
