FIGURE 5.
M2δ-induced deformation of the lipid bilayer. M2δ is presented in a typical TM configuration. The space-filling model of the peptide is displayed with INSIGHT (Accelrys). Carbon atoms are colored green, hydrogen atoms are colored white, oxygen atoms are colored red, and nitrogen atoms are colored blue. The two white lines represent the boundaries of the hydrocarbon region of the lipid bilayer.
