Figure 3. — Correlation of osmotic water permeability with various structural parameters of lipid bilayers composed of a single kind of lipid. Water permeability correlates well with area/lipid of each molecule (A) while thickness (B), bending modulus (C), and compressibility (D) do not show any correlation. Each lipid is shown by a different symbol as shown in A. Compressibility and bending modulus data for DOPS and DLPE are not available and hence are omitted from the figure, C and D. These data are summarized in Table I.
