Liposomes consisting of egg yolk phosphatidylcholine and hydrophobic peptides Nps-and C1--+H,-(Met-Met-Leu),-OEt ( n = 6-10) with various polypeptide chain lengths were prepared by the sonication method. The conformation of the peptides incorporated into the liposomes was examined by CD spectroscopy
