“…Note that similar selectivity experiments have been done with these C-terminal sequences fused to GFP with similar results, suggesting that the information required was indeed entirely present in this C-terminal domain. A thermodynamic study indicated that the two positive charges flanking the N-side of the α-helix of Bcl-xL might not be crucial for membrane anchoring but might be required for an adequate orientation of the helix within the membrane [ 56 ].…”

“…Consideration of this RC was critical around the water-bilayer interface, where the peptide prefers the horizontal orientation, and as the peptide goes deeper into the bilayer, it reorients to the vertical orientation. 15,35 So to build the 2D PMF, 5−9 continuous bins along "DIST-Z" (bins that represent partially inserted states of the peptide) and seven nonoverlapping bins along "TLT" Study of BXCT at a High P:L Ratio. To make the anionic bilayer surface crowded with BXCT, three peptides were placed around the center of the bilayer surface one-by-one with subsequent equilibrium simulations on each addition, in an attempt to cause surface charge neutralization and subsequent deformation to the bilayer.…”

“…The choice of RC is very crucial as it should clearly differentiate the final states of interest, as well as require to sufficiently sample the rarely visited transition states . Biological processes are often associated with “hidden barriers” across a slower degrees of freedom, e.g., transition of a peptide into a bilayer is often associated with peptide rotation. , However, devising an ideal RC that can describe the complexity of transition states is often not trivial and subject to rigorous independent investigation, e.g., RC for pore formation inside a membrane bilayer. , In such cases, considering more than one RC, representing the relevant degrees of freedom, can provide a better insight of the process compared to a single RC. In the present investigation, a combination of 1D (i.e.…”
