Accommodation of a central arginine in a transmembrane peptide by changing the placement of anchor residues.
Both Trp and Arg in transmembrane protein domains make important interactions with lipids at the membrane/water interface, but at different depths. Derivatives of the designed peptide GWALP23, acetyl-GGALW(5)LALALALALALALW(19)LAGA-amide, with single Trp anchors, have proven useful for characterizing...
