Robust, reliable, and protein-free bacterial membrane mimicking systems compatible with the high through put screening techniques will largely facilitate the discovery of new... -
Interaction of an antimicrobial peptide from Lactobacillus gasseri supernatan...
A short peptide, composed of 12 amino acids (EFVFVAHAVPVM), presenting a strongly hydrophobic character, was recently isolated from Lactobacillus gasseri supernatant (AMP12).... -
The impact of synthetic perfumes on surfactant self-assembly.
This proposal is part of a broad collaboration between Oxford, CCLRC, and Unilever in the study of surfactants and mixed surfactants at interfaces and in solution. This is an... -
Structure of the interaction between complement factor H (CFH) and complement...
Complement comprises key proteins in innate immunity that forms a major defence and clearance system in blood. CFH is the major regulator of active C3b formed from C3. C3d is a... -

A complex model of the bacterial outer membrane containing oriented proteins ...
The Outer Membrane (OM) is found in bacteria which cause plague, cholera & Legionnaire¿s disease. It is important as; a barrier to antibiotics & the site of... -
Neutron Reflectivity Study of Antimicrobial Peptides Interacting with Lipopol...
The outer membrane (OM) of gram negative bacteria is mainly constituted of highly polydisperse and amphiphilic lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an endotoxin which is accompanied by... -
Orientation of an Antimicrobial Peptide in Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic Membranes.
Antimicrobial peptides are small, usually alpha-helical peptides that kill cells by disrupting the cell membrane. Recently, we have been studying a simple 'designed'... -
Solution aggregation of lipopeptides: SANS structure determination
Lipopeptide surfactants are highly effective at reducing interfacial tension. However, there is a general lack of understanding of the relationship between their molecular... -
