Inversion of the Configuration of a Single Stereocenter in a β‐Heptapeptide Leads to Drastic Changes in its Interaction with Phospholipid Bilayers

One small change for a molecule The change in the configuration of a single amino acid in a β3-heptapeptide can lead to remarkable changes in the physicochemical properties of the peptide with respect to the interaction with lipid vesicles (liposomes) formed from DOPC (1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine).
