Peptide channel redesign: mutations of gramicidin A at membrane-water interface
Thesis advisor: Jianmin Gao === My graduate research focuses on engineering and characterizing gramicidin A (gA), a natural fifteen-residue transmembrane channel peptide. It consists of D- and L- amino acids at alternate positions. gA is believed to fold into a β-helix in membranes, and two folded m...
