Formation of β-Strand Oligomers of Antimicrobial Peptide Magainin 2 Contributes to Disruption of Phospholipid Membrane

The antimicrobial peptide magainin 2 (M2) interacts with and induces structural damage in bacterial cell membranes. Although extensive biophysical studies have revealed the interaction mechanism between M2 and membranes, the mechanism of membrane-mediated oligomerization of M2 is controversial. Here...
