Role of membrane stretch in adsorption of antiviral peptides onto lipid membranes and membrane pore formation
Many medically important viruses are enveloped viruses, which are surrounded by a structurally conserved, host-derived lipid membrane coating. Agents that target and disrupt this membrane coating could potentially function as broad-spectrum antiviral drugs. The amphipathic α-helical (AH) peptide der...
