Transmembrane domain dimerization induces cholesterol rafts in curved lipid bilayersElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: Convergence details for metadynamics simulations; cholesterol raft formation plots as the bilayer bends; mathematical details on coordination number calculations; plots of the curved bilayer with TM peptides in their monomeric form with no cholesterol raft and plots of the curved bilayer without TM peptides with no cholesterol raft.

Are the dimerization of transmembrane (TM) domains and the reorganization of the lipid bilayer two independent events? Does one event induce or interfere with the other? In this work, we have performed well-tempered metadynamics simulations to calculate the free energy cost to bend a model ternary l...
