Table 7.

Overall thickness (DB), headgroup-headgroup distance (DHH) and hydrophobic thickness (2DC) for each lipid bilayer from C36/LJ-PME, C36 and experiments (Expt.). Standard errors are given in parentheses. The experimental values with uncertainties for saturated PC lipids and POPC from 2011, Kučerka et al. [53] DOPC experimental values from earlier study of same group published in 2008 [56]. PE experimental values from their later study in 2015 [58]. PG experimental values from their 2014 paper [60]. DHPC experimental values from two separate publications [50, 51]. C36 values are from Zhuang et al. [52, 55] and Leonard et al. [3], and standard errors are less than 0.3 Å if not provided.
