Positional dependence of the normalized free rotational space Ω (i.e., the effective space within which the spin label can wobble) of the solutions belonging to the transmembrane state of the M13 coat protein (21), obtained from ESR spectral simulation of spin-labeled protein when reconstituted into 14:1 PC (solid circles) and 22:1 PC (triangles) lipid bilayers. The data points are plotted on a logarithmic scale and represent the center of mass of the Ω distribution, and the error bars point to their second moments. The ESR spectra were recorded at room temperature above the gel-to-liquid crystalline phase transition temperature of 14:1 PC and 22:1 PC.
