2017, Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - BiomembranesCitation Excerpt :DLS experiments were carried out on ULVs with various phospholipid compositions (Fig. 2). In this experiment, melittin, a toxin from bee venom that is known for its ability to cause membrane lysis through pore formation [3,5], was used as the control for comparisons of membrane disruption in vesicles [28,29]. As shown in Fig. 2, HaTx and melittin had different effects on vesicle size following the addition of the individual toxins.
A pore-forming toxin requires a specific residue for its activity in membranes with particular physicochemical properties

2015, Chemical PhysicsCitation Excerpt :The molecular orientation of melittin is of great interest since it gives direct hints to the peptide mode of action, which is still being hotly debated. Traditionally, two main peptide-lipid interaction models have been proposed: barrel stave [20] and carpet/toroidal pore models [21,22]. More recent studies observed a more sophisticated interaction picture in which melittin adopts a dual orientation distribution [10,23] or the pore formation occurs as a transient process [24,25].
