What is it about?

The lipophilicity of cholesterol was investigated and a model was developed.

Why is it important?

This shows the significance of systematic optimization of the lipophilicity for developing coarse-grain models of important biomolecules with complicated molecular structures and hydrophobic character like cholesterol.

Perspectives

Other important biomolecules are being studied and more models are being developed.
