Membrane thickening by the antimicrobial peptide PGLa.
Using x-ray diffraction, solid-state 2H-NMR, differential scanning calorimetry, and dilatometry, we have observed a perturbation of saturated acyl chain phosphatidylglycerol bilayers by the antimicrobial peptide peptidyl-glycylleucine-carboxyamide (PGLa) that is dependent on the length of the hydroc...
