Using extensive atomistic simulations, we show that there is a single experimentally accessible parameter--the sterol tilt--that can be used to determine a sterol's capability to induce order, and thus to promote, e.g., formation of lipid rafts. The observations also facilitate designing new effective sterols.
通过广泛的原子模拟,我们发现有一个单一的实验可获取参数——甾醇倾斜度,它可用于确定甾醇诱导有序性的能力,进而促进例如脂筏的形成。这些观察结果也有助于设计新型有效的甾醇。
