Summary of distribution parameters (means and standard deviations) for cholesterol in rHDL and MLVs determined from MD simulations and by generation of a Gaussian distribution of orientations according to the procedure outlined in Fig. 4.
| MD simulations | Gaussian distribution | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MN (σMN) | MN (σMN) | MN (σMN) | MN (σMN) | |
| rHDLa | 89° (19°) | 150° (16°) | 90° (19°) | 148° (16°) |
| MLVb | 94° (17°) | 157° (15°) | 90° (18°) | 154° (15°) |
