## Abstract Pathogenic prion proteins (PrP^Sc^) are thought to be produced by α‐helical to β‐sheet conformational changes in the normal cellular prion proteins (PrP^__C__^) located solely in the caveolar compartments. In order to inquire into the possible conformational changes due to the influence

## Abstract In our previous study, we utilized a 26‐residue amphipathic α‐helical antimicrobial peptide L‐V13K (Chen et al., Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2007, 51, 1398–1406) as the framework to study the effects of peptide hydrophobicity on the mechanism of its antimicrobial action. In this study,
