FIGURE 6.
Representative FTIR spectra illustrating the type of temperature-dependent changes in the peptide amide I bands observed with mixtures of peptides LA3LA2 and LA6 with PC bilayers. The data set that is shown was acquired in the cooling mode using a LA6 mixture with ditridecanoyl-PC bilayers at a nominal lipid/peptide ratio of 30/1. The marked component (*) near 1670 cm−1 arises from the trifluoroacetate counterions which copurify with the peptides.
