Interactions of Cationic Peptides and Ions with Negatively Charged Lipid Bilayers

In this thesis we study the interactions of ions and cationic peptides with a negatively charged lipid bilayer in an ionic solution where the electrostatic interactions are screened. <br /><br /> We first examine the problem of charge renormalization and inversion of a highly charged...
