The self-assembly of the phospholipid bilayer at 550 ns and 1000 ns. A arbutin.; B cholesterol; C undecane-glucose conjugate; D cholesterol-undecanoate-glucose conjugate. E The self-assembly of a lipid bilayer: Snapshots showing the spontaneous self-assembly of PLPC into a bilayer: the starting random mixture (t = 0 ns); a bilayer-like assembly containing a pore (t = 50 ns); an equilibrated bilayer (t = 700 ns). The PLPC and target materials are depicted as yellow and cyan respectively, blue is the nitrogen atom in phospholipids, red is oxygen atom in conjugates. Note that water molecules are not shown
