I am preparing liposomes to mimic E.coli membrane to study functional parameters of membrane proteins. Along with using PE and PG, I am interested in understanding how lipid A interacts with membrane proteins and therefore, I need to mimic the membrane which is physiologically relevant with respect to its lipid A profile. Can anyone tell me what is the mol percentage of lipid A found in the composition of E.coli plasma membrane.
