The helical polypeptide, gramicidin A has been widely studied as a model for the interactions of hydrophobic proteins with lipid bilayer membranes. Many reports are now available of the physical effects of mixing gramicidin A with phospholipid membranes, however, the interpretation of these data rem
Gossypol (1,1 ',6,6 ',7,7'-hexahydroxy-5,5 ' -diisopropyl-3,3 '-dimethyl[2,2'-binaphthalene]-8,8' dicarboxaldehyde) previously used as a male oral contraceptive is an amphiphilic compound. At low concentrations, it is expected that gossypol would intercalate into the phospholipid bilayers. To demons
