In the originally published version of this article, Figure 2 was duplicated in Figure 3. Figure 3 has now been corrected online, and the correct Figure 3 appears below.

FIGURE 3.

FIGURE 3

The effect of temperature on the solubility limits of different SMs in the Ld phase. The solubility of 16:0-SM (A) and 24:0-SM (B) in the Ld phase was measured in POPC bilayers containing 0 or 20 mol % cholesterol. Above these concentrations, the SMs formed ordered domains. The values are averages of ≥3 experiments ± SD.
