Figure 1

A cartoon depicting packing of DC8,9PC in the lipid bilayer. Three monomers (red, blue and black) are shown in the figure (Left). UV (254 nm)-triggered intermolecular photo-crosslinking results in polymerization of DC8,9PC (Right). The cartoon also shown that photo-crosslinking reaction occurs between the sn-1 or the sn-2 fatty acyl chain of the three monomers respectively. Alignment of adjacent DC8,9PC acyl chains that leads to UV-induced Polymerization.
