## Abstract The site‐specific motion of Arg residues in a membrane‐bound disulfide‐linked antimicrobial peptide, protegrin‐1 (PG‐1), was investigated by using magic‐angle‐spinning solid‐state NMR spectroscopy to better understand the membrane insertion and lipid interaction of this cationic membran

under 4.5 kHz MAS. Two-dimensional LG-CP and DIPSHIFT experiments were used to measure CÀH dipolar couplings and the ROCSA experiment was used to measure the 13 C NMR CSA values. Further details of orientation simulations are given in the Supporting Information.
## Abstract Many membrane peptides and protein domains contain functionally important cationic Arg and Lys residues, whose insertion into the hydrophobic interior of the lipid bilayer encounters significant energy barriers. To understand how these cationic molecules overcome the free energy barrier
