Thus its localization must be determined Thus its localization must be determined by affinity for other lipids or proteinsby affinity for other lipids or proteins

Cholesterol has an increased affinity for some types of lipids (saturated Cholesterol has an increased affinity for some types of lipids (saturated glycerophospholipids and sphingolipids), and for some sorts of proteins. glycerophospholipids and sphingolipids), and for some sorts of proteins. The high affinity of cholesterol for a certain protein may make this The high affinity of cholesterol for a certain protein may make this a raft protein just like the effect of palmitoylationa raft protein just like the effect of palmitoylation
