Figure 6.
Peptide binding and insertion associated surface tension changes of lipid monolayer mimicking tissue cell (DPPC/Cholesterol/DPPS=50/10/2.5) (A) and bacteria (DPPC//DPPG=50/3) (B) membranes. CL-1* refers to freshly prepared sample from completely dissolved (non-aggregated) CL-1. The initial surface tension of lipid monolayer was set at about 30 mN/m. The final peptide concentrations were kept at 10 µM. The time points of peptide loading were indicated by arrows.
