Abstract excerpt
Knowledge about the vertical movement of a protein with respect to the lipid bilayer plane is important to understand protein functionality in the biological membrane. In this work, the vertical displacement of bacteriophage M13 major coat protein in a lipid bilayer is used as a model system to study the molecular details of its anchoring mechanism in a homologue series of lipids with the same polar head group...
