Figure 6

Order parameter -<S cd > for the acyl chains of DOPC lipids binding to different intermediates as a function of carbon atom index. (A) sn-1 and (B) sn-2 chain of the DOPC within 15 Å of the proteins. (C) sn-1 and (D) sn-2 chain of DOPC whose distances to proteins are larger than 15 Å. The angle brackets denote the average values over the last 100 ns simulation time, the error bars corresponding to the deviations of five 20-ns windows in the last 100 ns trajectories.
