Abstract
⺠Cardiolipin is a key component of the inner mitochondrial membrane. ⺠pH induced significant lipid packing modifications only for cardiolipin-containing membranes. ⺠Asymmetry of the best preferred area per lipid leads to membrane shape instability. ⺠Cristae-like morphologies are only observed for cardiolipin-containing GUVs. ⺠Lipids play a specific role in inner mitochondrial membrane morphology and dynamics.
