Atomic Force Microscopy to Characterize Antimicrobial Peptide-Induced Defects in Model Supported Lipid Bilayers

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) interact with bacterial cell membranes through a variety of mechanisms, causing changes extending from nanopore formation to microscale membrane lysis, eventually leading to cell death. Several AMPs also disrupt mammalian cell membranes, despite their significantly diff...
