Interactions of Bio-Inspired Membranes with Peptides and Peptide-Mimetic Nanoparticles

Interactions of Bio-Inspired Membranes with Peptides and Peptide-Mimetic Nanoparticles

Via Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD) and implicit solvent coarse-grained (CG) Molecular Dynamics (MD) we examine the interaction of an amphiphilic cell-penetrating peptide PMLKE and its synthetic counterpart with a bio-inspired membrane. We use the DPD technique to investigate the interaction of...
