The effect of cholesterol (5-40 mol%) on the magnetic induced orientation of sphingomyelin/cholesterol multilamellar vesicles (MLVs) was examined using static solid state P-31 NMR spectroscopy. The orientation was modeled assuming an ellipsoidal deformation of the vesicles and was monitored as a function of cholesterol concentration and temperature. In addition, the static P-31 chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) was used to assess the motional and dynamical changes occurring in the bilayer are reported. An exploration of the factors determining the magnetic orientation in sphingomyelin/cholesterol bilayers from the gel (s(o)) to liquid crystalline (or liquid-ordered, l(o)) phases is presented and discussed.
