Preface; Contents; Contributors; Introduction; Antibacterial and Hemolytic Activity of Amphipathic Helical Peptides; Bacterial Membrane as a Target for a Novel Class of Diastereomers of Cytolytic Peptides; Bee Venom Toxicity; Polymyxins; Environmental Effects on Skin Lipids and Impairment of Barrier Function; Oxidative Stress and Loose Coupling/Uncoupling; Uncouplers of Oxidative Phosphorylation; Tetraether Lipid Liposomes; Transfection of Eukaryotic Cells with Bipolar Cationic Derivatives of Tetraether Lipid; Cholera Toxin Conformational Changes Associated with Changes in Membrane Structure.
This study asserts that cellular and intracellular membranes are active in every aspect of the body's physiology and pathophysiology. It compares secondary through to quaternary structures and protein sequences and guages their influence on health, disease and drug therapy.
