Line-active molecules (linactants) that bind to the boundary interface between different fluid lipid domains in membranes have a strong potential as regulators of the lateral heterogeneity that is important for many biological processes. Here, we use molecular dynamics simulations in combination with a coarse-grain model that retains near-atomic resolution to identify lipid species that can act as linactants in a model membrane that is segregated into two lipid domains of different fluidity. Our simulations predict that certain hybrid saturated/unsaturated chain lipids can bind to the interface and lower the line tension, whereas cone-shaped lysolipids have a less pronounced effect.
