Abstract
Studying phase coexistence in lipid bilayers and monolayers is important for understanding lipid-lipid interactions underlying lateral organization in biological membranes. Computer simulations follow experimental approaches and use model lipid mixtures of simplified composition. Atomistic simulations give detailed information on the specificity of intermolecular interactions, while coarse-grained simulations achieve large time and length scales and provide a bridge towards state-of-the-art experimental techniques. Computer simulations allow characterizing the structure and composition of domains during phase transformations at Angstrom and picosecond resolution, and bring new insights into phase behavior of lipid membranes.
