We have determined the mixing properties and lamellar organization of bacterial membrane mimetics composed of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (POPE) and -phosphatidylglycerol (POPG) at various molar ratios applying differential scanning calorimetry, small and wide-angle X-ray scattering, as well as optical phase contrast microscopy. Combining the experimental thermodynamic data with a simulation of the liquidus and solidus lines, we were able to construct a phase diagram. Using this approach, we find that the lipids mix in all phases non-ideally in the thermodynamic sense. As expected, pure POPE assembles into multilamellar and pure POPG into unilamellar vesicles, respectively, which are stable within the studied temperature range. In contrast, mixtures of the two components form oligolamellar vesicles consisting of about three to five bilayers. The layers within these oligolamellar liposomes are positionally correlated within the gel phase, but become uncorrelated within the fluid phase exhibiting freely fluctuating bilayers, while the vesicles as a whole remain intact and do not break up into unilamellar forms. X-ray, as well as DSC data, respectively, reveal a miscibility gap due to a lateral phase segregation at POPG concentrations above about 70 mol%, similar to previously reported data on mixtures composed of disaturated PEs and PGs. Hence, the existence of a region of immiscibility is a general feature of PE/PG mixtures and the mixing properties are dominated by PE/PG headgroup interactions, but are largely independent of the composition of the hydrocarbon chains. This is in accordance with a recent theoretical prediction.
