Chiral supramolecular architecture of stable transmembrane pores formed by an α-helical antibiotic peptide in the presence of lyso-lipids

The amphipathic α-helical antimicrobial peptide MSI-103 (aka KIA21) can form stable transmembrane pores when the bilayer takes on a positive spontaneous curvature, e.g. by the addition of lyso-lipids. Solid-state (31)P- and (15)N-NMR demonstrated an enrichment of lyso-lipids in these toroidal wormho...
