## Abstract Peptide insertion, positioning, and stabilization in a model membrane are probed via an allβatom molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. One peptide (WL5) is simulated in each leaflet of a solvated dimyristoylglyceroβ3βphosphate (DMPC) membrane. Within the first 5 ns, the peptides spontaneo
## Abstract The development of compounds to regulate the activation of the complement system in nonβprimate species is of profound interest because it can provide models for human diseases. The peptide compstatin inhibits protein C3 in primate mammals and is a potential therapeutic agent against un
