Effect of the structure of lipids favoring disordered domain formation on the stability of cholesterol-containing ordered domains (lipid rafts): identification of multiple raft-stabilization mechanisms. Biophys. J. 93, 4307-4318 (2007). Polyunsaturated acyl chains of membrane lipids can effectively drive the formation of membrane rafts because of especially poor packing with cholesterol.
