Antimicrobial peptides and set-ups used in this study. BP100 (A), Decoralin (B), NK-1 (C), and Temporin-L (D) atomic structures and their respective helical wheel projections. (E) All-atom membrane system setup with a single peptide placed in solution. (F) CG representation of BP100 and POPC/POPG lipids, together with the vesicle setup (left image: cross section, right image: entire box view) in which multiple peptides were inserted in the extra-vesicular solution. Images rendered in VMD 1.9.457,58 and UCSF ChimeraX.
