Molecular dynamics simulations of melittin at high dilution near a fully hydrated bilayer membrane composed ofPOPC lipids have been performed for a total time of 1.36 ns. It is shown that melittin adsorbs to the membrane. In the adsorbed state the protein exhibits a well defined conformation and ori

Modified phospholipids possessing carboxyl head groups synthesized from phosphatidylethanolamine were incorporated into supported lipid monolayers on top of a thin gold film. A monoclonal antibody was chemically coupled to the modified lipids in these monolayers and the kinetics of antigen binding w
We present molecular mechanical calculations on the complexes of netropsin with dA6-dT6, d(TATATA),, d(CGCGCG),, and d(CGCGAA?TCG€G),. The complexes were model built using computer graphics and then completely energy refined. Our calculations are consistent with the observed AT preference for netrop
