A schematic model for membrane fragmentation by hIAPP20-29. (A) At lower concentrations, the peptide aggregates on the lipid bilayer surface to form an intermediate state that is capable of extracting phospholipid molecules from the bilayer and leading to peptide-lipid vesicles (B). At higher concentrations, fiber formation follows an alternate pathway bypassing the formation of this intermediate (C).
