In addition, some bioactive peptides and pathogenic proteins target membrane proteins and lipids to exert their effects. Therefore, an understanding of dynamic and complex intermolecular interactions among these membrane constituents is needed to elucidate their mechanisms. This review summarizes the major research carried out in the author's laboratory on how lipids and their inhomogeneous distributions regulate the structures and functions of antimicrobial peptides and Alzheimer's amyloid beta-protein. Also, how to detect transmembrane helix-helix and membrane protein-protein interactions and how they are modulated by lipids are discussed. 收起
