Figure 6
Neutron reflectometry analysis of melittin (MLT) interactions of a low-coverage (69.7 ± 0.8%) SALB bilayer. The upper panel displays reflectivity profiles for D2O, H2O and SMW contrasts before and after 5 µM melittin incubation, with experimental data points and MixedSlab model fits. The lower panel presents SLD profiles, revealing the melittin interaction. The low-coverage SALB bilayer maintains structural integrity despite enhanced peptide incorporation, due to melittin binding into existing defects and holes.
