Effect of temperature on lipid-packing defects. (A) A plot of lipid-packing defect size constants (deep in blue, shallow in green) for DPPC membrane simulations is shown at different temperatures. (B and C) The top view of a membrane patch of DPPC is shown at gel phase ((B); 300 K) and in the liquid disordered state ((C); 333 K) with coordinates of every elementary deep and shallow packing defect colored in blue and green, respectively. Aliphatic atoms are colored in yellow. All other lipid atoms are in gray.
