Abstract

The influence of cholesterol (CHO) on the phase behavior of 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DSPC) planar supported lipid bilayers (PSLBs) was investigated by sum-frequency vibrational spectroscopy (SFVS). The intrinsic symmetry constraints of SFVS were exploited to measure the asymmetric distribution of phase segregated phospholipid domains in the proximal and distal layers of DSPC + CHO binary mixtures as a function of CHO content and temperature. The SFVS results suggest that cholesterol significantly affects the phase segregation and domain distribution in PSLBs of DSPC in a concentration dependent manner, similar to that found in bulk suspensions. The SFVS spectroscopic measurements of phase segregation and structure change in the binary mixture indicate that membrane asymmetry must be present in order for the changes in SFVS signal to be observed. These results therefore provide important evidence for the delocalization and segregation of different phase domain structures in PSLBs due to the interaction of cholesterol and phospholipids.
