Acyl chain asymmetry and polyunsaturation of brain phospholipids facilitate membrane vesiculation without leakage

Phospholipid membranes form cellular barriers but need to be flexible enough to divide by fission. Phospholipids generally contain a saturated fatty acid (FA) at position sn1 whereas the sn2-FA is saturated, monounsaturated or polyunsaturated. Our understanding of the impact of phospholipid unsatura...
