Asymmetric Spontaneous Intercalation of Lutein into a Phospholipid Bilayer, a Computational Study

Lutein, a hydroxylated carotenoid, is a pigment synthesised by plants and bacteria. Animals are unable to synthesise lutein, nevertheless, it is present in animal tissues, where its only source is dietary intake.
