Surface activity of amphiphilic helical beta-peptides from molecular dynamics simulation

The surface activity of beta-peptides is investigated using molecular simulations. The type and display of hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups on helical beta-peptides is varied systematically. Peptides with 2/3 hydrophobic groups are found to be surface active, and to adopt an orientation parallel t...
