Snapshots from the molecular dynamics simulations showing the pore-mediated lipid flip–flop. Only the flip–flopping lipid is shown; water is shown in red and white, acyl chains of the flip–flopped lipid are shown in yellow, and its choline and phosphate groups are shown in orange and green, respectively.
