Elucidating mysteries of phase-segregated membranes: mobile-lipid recruitment facilitates pores ’ passage to the fluid phase

Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2018, Advance Article DOI: 10.1039/C8CP00958A, PaperJes ús M. López Martí, Niall J. English, Mario G. Del Pópolo Transmembrane pores created in liquid-ordered domains of phase segregated membranes migrate spontaneously to the liquid-disordered phase,via‘recruitment’ of unsaturated lipids to the pore's rim.
