Membrane Charge and Packing Govern the Interfacial Insertion, Structure, and Dynamics of Ctx(Ile21)-Ha and Its TOAC-Labeled Analogues in Biomimetic Liposomes

Abstract Cationic antimicrobial peptides are promising candidates to combat antifungal resistance. However, a detailed understanding of their membranotropic activity is required for targeted applications and sequence engineering. Here, we investigated the native peptide Ctx(Ile21...
