Jacqueline De Bony and Edward A. Dennis* abstract: Magnetic nonequivalence of the two acyl chains in phospholipids has been shownby'H NMR in several kinds of micelles [Roberts, M. F., Bothner-By, A. A., & Dennis, E. A.(1978) Biochemistry, 17,935]. The chemical shifts of the two a-methylene groups have been assigned, and a difference of about 0.1 ppm between the two chains has been interpreted as a difference in the position of the two fatty acid chains relative to the interface. This conclusion has now been ex-tended to phospholipid systems closer to biological membranes in the form of small unilamellar vesicles prepared by sonication of phospholipid dispersions. Several kinds of phospholipid vesicles are compared, including phosphatidylserine, phos-phatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidic acid, and phosphatidylcholine. By using suitable resolution en-hancement techniques, it was possible to overcome the broad lines in the spectra and observe the sn-1 and sn-2 a-methylene protons in most of the phospholipid vesicles. The two a-methylene protons on the sn-2 chain are nonequivalent, and
