The Role of Cholesterol in Biological Membranes
Abstract: Cholesterol plays the role of a regulator that ensures the correct packaging of the lipid part of the membrane, which is necessary for its normal operation, by influencing on the mobility of the fatty acid tails of membrane lipids: if the membrane is too rigid and there is a danger of "freezing" of fatty acid chains, cholesterol causes it to liquefy, since the chains in its presence become more mobile; …
