Experimental leakage curves for four peptides. *ARVA and LL37 are antimicrobial peptides that show the characteristics of transient permeabilization; a rapid burst of leakage followed by a dramatic slowing of leakage over a short period of time. Melittin is a bee venom peptide that behaves as a transient pore former at low concentration. M159 is a highly potent pore forming peptide that behaves as an equilibrium pore former at all concentrations. LIC50, the peptide to lipid ratio that causes 50% leakage at 30 minutes, is shown for each peptide.
