MitoCLox: A Novel Mitochondria-Targeted Fluorescent Probe for Tracing Lipid Peroxidation

Figure 7

The density distributions of the following components at the bilayer-water interface: L: lipids; W: water; PDT: phenyl-butadienyl tail of the dye; TPP: TPP⁺; CL C=C: double bonded carbons of CL; dye C=C: diene carbons of the dye. The density is averaged over 700 ns part of the MD simulation trajectory of the MitoCLox-containing system. The density values are given in different units to be visually comparable: in g/cm³ (L, W), in 10 g/cm³ (CL C=C), and in 10 mol/cm³ (PDT, TPP, and dye C=C).
