The Location of the Antimicrobial Peptide Maculatin 1.1 in Model Bacterial Membranes

Maculatin 1.1 (Mac1) is an antimicrobial peptide (AMP) from the skin secretions of Australian tree frogs. In this work, the interaction of Mac1 with anionic phospholipid bilayers was investigated by NMR, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, neutron reflectometry (NR) and molecular dynamics (MD). In...
