We report a structural study on the membrane binding of ovispirin using 2D IR line shape
analysis, isotope labeling, and molecular dynamics simulations. Ovispirin is an antibiotic …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are an emerging class of antibiotics for controlling health
effects of antibiotic-resistant microbial strains. Protegrin-1 (PG-1) is a model antibiotic among …

A new solid-state NMR-based strategy is established for the precise and efficient analysis of
orientation and dynamics of transmembrane peptides in fluid bilayers. For this purpose …

Antimicrobial peptides, which play multiple host-defense roles, have garnered increased
experimental focus because of their potential applications in the pharmaceutical and food …

The opening and closing of voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels are controlled by several
conserved Arg residues in the S4 helix of the voltage-sensing domain. The interaction of …

In a dispensing system and process for dispensing a warm wet Wipe, a wet has an aqueous
solution and microencapsulated delivery vehicles including a temperature change agent …

Classical antibiotics work by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, protein synthesis, DNA
(deoxyribonucleic acid) replication, or by modifying metabolism. Bacteria can resist …

Background Many Gram-positive bacteria produce pore-forming exotoxins that contain a
highly conserved, 12-residue domain (ECTGLAWEWWRT) that binds cholesterol. This …

Accurately predicting the atomic structure of membrane proteins from amino acid sequence
remains one of the most important and challenging tasks in biophysics. The chief goal is an …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are naturally occurring antibiotics found in essentially all
living organisms. In the past two decades, AMPs have attracted considerable interest …
