Interaction of a synthetic antimicrobial peptide with model membrane by fluorescence spectroscopy
(Springer, 2013-12-01)
Static and time-resolved fluorescence of tryptophan and ortho-aminobenzoic acid was used to investigate the interaction of the synthetic antimicrobial peptide L1A (IDGLKAIWKKVADLLKNT-NH2) with POPC and POPC:POPG. N-acetylated ...
The effect of acidic residues and amphipathicity on the lytic activities of mastoparan peptides studied by fluorescence and CD spectroscopy
(Springer, 2011-01-01)
Some mastoparan peptides extracted from social wasps display antimicrobial activity and some are hemolytic and cytotoxic. Although the cell specificity of these peptides is complex and poorly understood, it is believed ...

Dengue fusion peptides in interaction with model membranes-A fluorescence study
(2021-04-01)
Dengue fever is a widespread infectious disease caused by Dengue viruses and responsible for millions of cases per year. One of the key steps during the infection is the fusion between the cell membrane and the lipidic ...
Biophysical Studies of TOAC Analogs of the Ctx(Ile21)-Ha Antimicrobial Peptide Using Liposomes
(2022-06-01)
Antimicrobial peptides (AMP) are innate components of the defense system of many forms of life, composing the first line of defense from invading pathogens. Among many AMPs described in several databases, the Ctx(Ile21)-Ha ...
Fluorescence spectroscopy of small peptides interacting with microheterogeneous micelles
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2010)
Many peptides containing tryptophan have therapeutic uses and can be studied by their fluorescent properties. The biological activity of these peptides involves interactions with many cellular components and micelles can ...
Interaction of cyclic and linear labaditin peptides with anionic and zwitterionic micelles
(2014)
Conformational changes of the cyclic (Lo) peptide Labaditin (VWTVWGTIAG) and its linear analogue (L1) promoted by presence of anionic sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and zwitterionic L-α-Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) micelles ...
