X-ray diffraction and NMR data for the study of the location of idebenone and idebenol in model membranes.

Here we present some of our data about the interaction of idebenone and idebenol with dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DPPC). In particular, we include data of small angle X-ray diffraction (SAXD) and wide angle X-ray diffraction experiments, obtention of electronic profiles of the membranes, (2)H-NMR and (31)P-NMR, as part of the research article: "Both idebenone and idebenol are localized near the lipid-water interface of the membrane and increase its fluidity" (Gomez-Murcia et al., 2016) [1]. These data were obtained from model membranes that included different proportions of idebenone and idebenol, at temperatures both above and below of the gel to fluid phase. The X-ray experiments were carried out by using a modified Kratky compact camera (MBraun-Graz-Optical Systems, Graz Austria), incorporating two coupled linear position sensitive detectors. The NMR data were collected from a a Bruker Avance 600 instrument.
