    Effects of DPH on DPPC-Cholesterol Membranes with Varying Concentrations of Cholesterol: From Local Perturbations to Limitations in Fluorescence Anisotropy Experiments

  • Original language description

    We have used atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to consider 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) fluorescent probes in a fluid dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine bilayer with 5 and 20 mol % cholesterol (CHOL). We show that while DPH affects a number ofmembrane properties, the perturbations induced by DPH depend on the concentration of cholesterol in a membrane. For example, we find DPH to influence the mass density distribution of lipids across the membrane and to promote the ordering of acyl chains around the probe. Yet, these perturbations get relatively weaker for increasing cholesterol concentration. Meanwhile, we also find that the commonly used analysis in terms of the Brownian rotational diffusion (BRD) model with Legendre polynomials to interpret fluorescence anisotropy (FA) experiments is sensitive to the amount of cholesterol. For small concentrations of cholesterol, the analysis of FA turns out to yield a relatively good approximation of the correct orientational distribut
