The Uptake Mechanism of the Cell-Penetrating pVEC Peptide

Figure 1

Snapshots for the SMD simulation on pVEC peptide as it moves across the bilayer. The peptide backbone is shown in red in cartoon representation, the phosphate heads are shown as cyan spheres, the lipid tails are shown in gray, and the water molecules are shown as blue spheres. Hydrogens in the lipids and water molecules are omitted for clarity.
