Schematic representation of correlated EGFRs (green) in a cholesterol (yellow) enriched lipid domain (center) and in a cholesterol-depleted nonraft lipid domain (right), drawn to illustrate the conclusion of this study. The red object on EGFR denotes the EGF ligand. Cholesterol molecules increase receptor-receptor interaction and thus promote the stability of correlatively moving EGFRs
