From: Computer simulation of partitioning of ten pentapeptides Ace-WLXLL at the cyclohexane/water and phospholipid/water interfaces

Figure 5

A. Snapshots of all peptides except the Trp peptide in the DOPC lipid bilayer system at 50 ns (NpT simulations). The first row and the third represent the peptide in the upper leaflet; the second and the last row the peptide in the lower leaflet. The peptide backbone is violet, the Ace and C-terminus are colored by atom type, Trp is green, Leu cyan, and the changing residue X3 is orange, while the water is shown as small white spheres and the cyclohexane is shown in light grey. The water molecules are shown as white spheres. The DOPC lipid bilayer is shown as two separated groups: the head group (choline and phosphate) is dark grey while the tails are lighter gray.
