Lipid-peptide interaction in oriented bilayers probed by interface-sensitive scattering methods.
Oriented lipid membranes deposited on solid substrates offer unique experimental opportunities to study lipid bilayer structure and lipid-peptide interaction in suitable model systems. In particular, modern interface-sensitive X-ray and neutron scattering methods can be used to probe the short-range order and molecular conformations of peptides and lipids in the fluid state of the bilayer.
