SLB: supported lipid bilayer; PE: Atto647N-phosphoethanolamine (live cell); SM: Atto647N-sphingomyelin (live cell); COase: SM diffusion after cholesterol depletion by COase treatment (live cell). D: free diffusion constant; α: time-fraction of free diffusion; rtrap: radius of trapping area determined by fitting Pr2t) (N = 250); Inline graphic: radius of trapping area determined by the magnifying analysis (N = 1,000); Inline graphic: trapping time determined by the magnifying analysis (N = 1,000). Standard deviations of values are approximately 10–30%.
