Abstract
The first observation of the orientation and order of cholesterol in a natural membrane is reported. The 2H-NMR spectrum of [2,2,3,4,4,6-2H6]cholesterol incorporated into human erythrocyte ghosts demonstrates that the orientation and anisotropic motion of cholesterol is very similar in natural and model membranes.Entities:
