The Transmembrane Helix Tilt May Be Determined by the Balance between Precession Entropy and Lipid Perturbation

Hydrophobic helical peptides interact with lipid bilayers in various modes, determined by the match between the length of the helix’s hydrophobic core and the thickness of the hydrocarbon region of the bilayer. For example, long helices may tilt with respect to the membrane normal to bury their hydr...
