Probing and Manipulating the Lateral Pressure Profile in Lipid Bilayers Using Membrane-Active Peptides—A Solid-State <sup>19</sup>F NMR Study

Probing and Manipulating the Lateral Pressure Profile in Lipid Bilayers Using Membrane-Active Peptides—A Solid-State <sup>19</sup>F NMR Study

The lateral pressure profile constitutes an important physical property of lipid bilayers, influencing the binding, insertion, and function of membrane-active peptides, such as antimicrobial peptides. In this study, we demonstrate that the lateral pressure profile can be manipulated using the peptid...
