Fig. 6. Enantiomeric lipids have no significant effect on lipid order.

Lipid vesicles reconstituted from total lipid extracts of M. mycoides cells had a similar lipid order (measured as the general polarization index of c-laurdan) for all three diets with POPC enantiomers. P-values, calculated using a two-tailed Student’s t-test, are shown. N = 3 biological replicates (membranes extracted from 3 biological M. mycoides replicates).
