Figure 4.
Position of the γ-secretase complex in the membrane and its average thickness taken from MD simulations. The same structure of the complex is shown in both panels for better visualization of its position. (a) The regular POPC membrane with 10% cholesterol and disordered lipid chains; (b) the raft-like bilayer with 50% cholesterol and nearly parallel lipid chains is on average 4 Å thicker.
