Abstract

AbstractThe effect of anionic lipids on the membrane insertion of a carboxyl group on a specially designed palmitoylated peptide was studied, using tryptophan fluorescence. It is demonstrated that the negatively charged membrane surface of mixed phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylglycerol small unilamellar vesicles enhances the protonation of the C-terminal carboxyl group, and the subsequent insertion of that part of the peptide
