The effect of peptide 35409 on E. coli ML 35 membrane. SEM micrographies show that bacteria treated with peptide had perturbations on their membrane: (A) bacteria in the absence of peptide and (B) treated with peptide 35409. A lytic effect on exposing spheroplasts to peptide 35409 is shown: (C) spheroplasts in the absence of peptide and (D) treated with peptide 35409. Further morphological change involving bacterial elongation was observed in bacteria treated with peptide 35409 (E).
