| 1 | Analysis of the intramolecular pyrene-pyrene collision data obtained for 30 such species in terms of a simple geometrical model showed that the sn-1 acyl chain penetrates, on the average, 0.84 +/- 0.11 methylene units (0.8 A) deeper into the bilayer than the sn-2 chain at 22 degrees C. A similar value was obtained at 37 degrees C. Since the penetration difference of the sn-1 and sn-2 acyl chains is inherently coupled to the conformation of the glycerol moiety, these data mean that the glycerol moiety of phosphatidylcholine is, on the average, only moderately tilted with respect to the bilayer plane in the liquid-crystalline state. | Glycerol | solute carrier family 38 member 3 | Homo sapiens |
