Figure 8. HAfp residues contributing to hydrogen bonding with the membrane.
Time series for the last 10 ns (90–100 ns) of simulation (i.e., after the peptide is inserted) of the hydrogen bonds formed by residues Trp-14, Thr-15, Trp-21, and Tyr-22 with the membrane in the systems where membrane insertion was observed. Both contributions from the backbone and side chains to H–bonds were accounted for in the calculation.
