General description

4ME 16:0 NBD PE (NBD-DPhPE) is a headgroup labeled fluorescent phospholipid.
NBD-DPhPE preferentially partitions, although not entirely, into the fluid phase of the cell membrane rather than the more ordered cholesterol and sphingolipid-enriched microdomain known as a lipid "raft."NBD-DSPE preferentially partitions, although not entirely, into the more ordered cholesterol and sphingolipid-enriched microdomain known as a lipid "raft." - Personal communication, Dr. Erwin London, SUNY-Stony Brook

Transmembrane Protein (Perfringolysin O) Association with Ordered Membrane Domains (Rafts) Depends Upon the Raft-Associating Properties of Protein-Bound Sterol

Biophysical journal, 105(12), 2733-2742 (2013-12-24)
Because transmembrane (TM) protein localization, or nonlocalization, in ordered membrane domains (rafts) is a key to understanding membrane domain function, it is important to define the origin of protein-raft interaction. One hypothesis is that a tight noncovalent attachment of TM

The hypothesis that mismatch between transmembrane (TM) length and bilayer width controls TM protein affinity for ordered lipid domains (rafts) was tested using perfringolysin O (PFO), a pore-forming cholesterol-dependent cytolysin. PFO forms a multimeric barrel with many TM segments. The
Altering hydrophobic sequence lengths shows that hydrophobic mismatch controls affinity for ordered lipid domains (rafts) in the multitransmembrane strand protein perfringolysin O.

Domains in cell membranes are created by lipid-lipid interactions and are referred to as membrane rafts. Reliable isolation methods have been developed which have shown that rafts from the same membranes have different proteins and can be sub-fractionated by immunoaffinity
