Varying the position of phospholipid acyl chain unsaturation modulates hopanoid and sterol ordering
A. H. N. Nguyen, L. Sharp, E. Lyman, J. P. Saenz
This study shows that hopanoids and sterols modulate lipid ordering differently based on phospholipid acyl chain unsaturation position, with cholesterol providing broader ordering effects than diplopterols.
