## Abstract The mechanism of membrane interaction by β‐sheet peptides is important to understand fundamental principles of folding of β‐barrel proteins and various β‐amyloid proteins. Here, we examined the conformational characteristics of a porin‐like channel forming (__x__S__x__G)~6~ peptide in s

Enkephalin represents one of the bioactive peptide molecules most extensively investigated both in solution and in the crystal state. Depending upon the environment chosen for such studies, three main conformational states were identified for this flexible, linear pentapeptide-i.e., an extended conf

## Abstract To identify rules for the design of efficient CPPs that can deliver therapeutic agents such as nucleic acids (DNAs, siRNAs) or proteins and PNAs into subcellular compartments, we compared the properties of several primary and secondary amphipathic CPPs. Studies performed with lipid mono
