. This research focuses on Piscidin-1, and in previous studies, Piscidin-1 was sequenced, found to be 22 residues long and histidine-rich. In this research the peptide dynamics were investigated through study of the effects of temperature and cholesterol, the topology of the membrane/peptide complex was studied through depth-of-insertion analysis using Hydrogen-Deuterium exchange ssNMR methods and preparation for the elucidation of the membrane/peptide complex structure by 31P-15N distance

Exchange in the Amphipathic Helices of Piscidin 1Anna Kozlova, Senior Capstone Seminar It has been established by previous studies that membrane-bound piscidin 1 adopts an  structure. Under such an arrangement hydrophilic residues would be exposed to the aqueous environment, while hydrophobic residues would be interacting with the cell membrane. In an oriented sample, while mimicking natural environment and physiological condition and exposing residues to deuterium oxide, observation was made possible
