title: Raman-spectroscopic evidence for the incorporation of alamethicin into dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine bilayers.
abstract: The interaction of alamethicin with dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine dispersions was investigated by Raman spectroscopy. The temperature dependence of the C-H stretching spectra demonstrates the incorporation of the polypeptide into the hydrophobic core even in the absence of a transmembrane potential gradient.
