Figure 7

Molecular dynamics simulations employing lipid bilayers composed of LPS and/or DOPC. (A) Snapshot of a bilayer at 2250 ns containing LPS/DOPC interacting with peptide VSAK. (B) Mean square displacement (MSD) analysis of the LPS/DOPC system in the presence or absence of peptide VSAK. (C) Snapshot at 2250 ns of a bilayer made entirely of DOPC in the presence of peptide VSAK. (D) MSD values from the DOPC system in the presence or absence of peptide VSAK.
