From: Phosphate-dependent aggregation of [KL]n peptides affects their membranolytic activity

TEM images of aggregated KL peptides: (A) KL10, (B) KL14, (C) KL18, showing fibrils in water at pH ≈ 10 after aging 24 h. (D–F) TEM pictures of KL peptides from 2 mM peptide solutions in 5 mM PB, not aged. (D) KL14 in 5 mM PB, pH = 7.0. (E) KL18 in 5 mM PB pH = 7.0. (F) Enlargement of the twisted fibril in the marked area in (D), showing parallel lines with a regular spacing of about 3 nm.
