Abstract

The interaction of gramicidin A with dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine liposomes is investigated by Laser-Raman spectroscopy. As revealed by the methylene CH stretching mode the phase transition of the hydrocarbon chains near 40°C is eliminated in the presence of gramicidin A. Liposomes prepared from a mixture of lecithin and cholesterol seem to be unaffected by gramicidin A and show only the normal broadened phase transition.
