aMolecular fraction of individual lipids; b Percentage of lipid tails, shortcuts are given in brackets. CL cardiolipin, PG phosphatidylglycerol, PE phosphatidylethanolamine, P palmitoyl, Mcis-9,10-methylene-hexadecanoic-acid, Ncis-11,12-methylene-octadecanoic-acid, Ycis-11,12-octadecenoic-acid, V palmitoleic acid, O oleic acid, Jcis-11,12-methylene-hexadecanoic-acid. For chemical structure, see Additional file 1: Figs. S1-S3. The proportion of saturated, unsaturated, and cyclopropane-containing tails of both models represents equally well recent experiments [51, 67, 112]
