Summary edit

Description
English: Diagram of possible lipid arrangements at the edge of a pore through a lipid bilayer. (above) In the absence of any re-arrangement the pore walls will be hydrophobic since the alkane tails are exposed. (below) Some researchers believe that the lipids at the edge re-orient to line the pore wall with hydrophilic head groups.
