Schematic representation of a cellular membrane depicting a selection of phospholipids as they appear in a bilayer. The liquid-ordered phase (Lo) typically harbors saturated phospholipids and cholesterol and therefore has a relatively rigid nature with a higher density of packing. The liquid-disordered phase is reached at temperatures above the transit temperature (Tm), which is typified by a more loose packing and less rigid nature.
