(A) Cholesterol effect on the POPC/cholesterol bilayer thickness, and the experimental bilayer thickness of the POPC bilayer was obtained from the work by Hodzic et al.⁷³ (B) Cholesterol effect on the POPC area condensation, and we obtained the experimental results for area per molecule from the work by Smaby et al.⁷⁴ (C) Cholesterol effect on the average cholesterol tilt in the POPC bilayer, and our previous work⁶⁰ provided the CHARMM36 all-atom calculations of the cholesterol tilt angle. (D) Cholesterol effect on the dipole potential of the POPC bilayer, and we obtained the experimental result for the dipole potential from the work by Haldar et al.⁷⁵
