Fig. 6

a Time series of the number of different lipid types within 7 Å of a prestin dimer, averaged over four dimers, in the outer (blue) and inner (red) leaflets. POPI lipids accumulate the most around prestin in the inner leaflet. b Depletion-Enrichment index of each lipid type (the ratio of the local and bulk fractions of the lipid). POPI and CHOL show the highest enrichment, whereas DPSM and POPE show the largest degree of depletion. Data points in each bar plot are shown as gray dots. Error bars are standard deviation of the data obtained from 2000 data points. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
