Adsorption of the fusogenic peptide B18 onto solid surfaces : insights into the mechanism of peptide assembly

The adsorption and assembly of B18 peptide on various solid surfaces were studied by reflectometry techniques and atomic force microscopy. B18 is the minimal membrane binding and fusogenic motif of the sea urchin protein bindin, which mediates the fertilization process. Silicon substrates were modif...
