Abstract
⺠The sterol affinity for phospholipid bilayers is affected by transmembrane peptides. ⺠Hydrophobic matching influences how the sterol affinity is affected by peptides. ⺠Peptides can both decrease and increase the sterol's affinity for the bilayer. ⺠Hydrophobic matching could control lateral organization in cellular membranes.
