Binary phase diagrams were constructed from differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) data for the systems 1-palmitoyl-2-oleylphosphatidylcholine (POPC)/dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC), POPC/dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and POPC/distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC). Mixtures of POPC with DMPC exhibit complete miscibility in the gel and liquid crystalline states. Mixtures of POPC with DPPC or with DSPC exhibit gel phase immiscibility over the composition range 0-75% DPPC (or DSPC). These results, when taken together with previous studies of mixtures of phosphatidylcholines, are consistent with the hypothesis that PC whose order-disorder transition temperatures (Tm values) differ by less than 33.degree. C exhibit gel state miscibility. Those whose Tm values differ by more than 33.degree. C exhibit gel state immiscibility. 2H-NMR spectroscopy was used to further study mixed model membranes composed of POPC and DPPC, in which either lipid was labeled with deuterium in the 2-, 10- or 16-position of the palmitoyl chain(s) or in the N-methyls of the choline head group. POPC/DPPC mixtures in the lipid crystalline state are intermediate in order between pure POPC and DPPC at the same temperature. The POPC palmitoyl chains is always more disorderd than the palmitoyl chains of DPPC in liquid crystalline POPC/DPPC mixtures. This is attributed to the fact that a POPC palmitoyl chain is constrained by direct bonding to have at least 1 oleyl chain among its nearest neighbors, while a DPPC palmitoyl chain must have at least 1 neighboring palmitoyl chain. When liquid crystalline POPC, DPPC and POPC/DPPC mixtures are compared at a reduced temperature (relative to the acyl chain order-disorder transition), POPC/DPPC mixtures are more disordered than predicted from the behavior of the pure components, in agreement with enthalpy data derived from DSC studies. Within the temperature range of the broad phase transition of 1:1 POPC/DPPC, a superposition of gel and liquid crystalline spectra is observed for 1:1 POPC/[2H]DPPC, while 1:1 [2H]POPC/DPPC exhibits only a liquid crystalline spectrum. At temperatures within the phase transition region, the liquid crystalline phase is POPC-rich and the gel phase is DPPC-rich. Comparison of the liquid crystalline quadrupole splittings within the thermal phase transition range suggests that mixing of the residual liquid crystalline POPC and DPPC is highly non-ideal.
