Spontaneous formation of structurally diverse membrane channel architectures from a single antimicrobial peptide
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) selectively form pores in microbial membranes in process not fully understood. Here the authors use experimentally guided molecular dynamics to study maculatin pore formation, showing how this AMP assembles into transient and structurally diverse oligomeric pores in cel...

| Sumario: | Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) selectively form pores in microbial membranes in process not fully understood. Here the authors use experimentally guided molecular dynamics to study maculatin pore formation, showing how this AMP assembles into transient and structurally diverse oligomeric pores in cell membranes. |
