Attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR FT-IR) has been used to monitor alterations in phospholipid organization in thin layers of 1, 2-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and l-palmitoyl-2-oleoylphosphatidylcholine (POPC), induced by the membrane lytic peptide melittin, its fragments 1-15 (hydrophobic fragment) and 16—26 (hydrophilic fragment), and-hemolysin. In addition, the secondary structures of the peptides and theorientation of helical fragments were determined with respect to the bilayer. The insertion of melittin into POPC caused large perturbations in the order and increased rates of motion of the acyl chains, as monitored by the frequency and half-widthof the symmetric CH2 stretching vibration near 2850 cm" 1, as well as by the ATR dichroic ratio for this mode. Changes in DPPC organization were less and were consistent with peptide-induced static disordering (gauche rotamer formation) in the acyl chains. Melittin adopted primarily an-helical secondary structure, although varying small proportions of ß and/or aggregated forms were noted. The helical segments were preferentially oriented perpendicular to the bilayer plane. Several modes of melittin/lipid interaction were considered in an attempt to semiquantitatively understand theobserved dichroic ratios. By considering the peptide as a bent rigid rod, a plausible model for its lytic properties has been developed. The hydrophilic fragment in DPPC showed a secondary structurewith little-helix present. As judged by its effect on phospholipid acyl chain organizational parameters, the fragment did not penetrate the bilayer substantially. The hy-drophobic fragment in DPPC gave amide I spectral patterns consistent with a mixture of predominantly/3-antiparallel pleated sheet with a smaller fractionof-helix. Disordering of the lipid acyl chains was induced by this fragment.-Hemolysin exhibited predominantly-helical secondary structure, with only moderate orientational preference. It is suggestedto lie randomly within the bilayer.IN^ elittin, an amphiphilic 26-amino acid peptide isolated from bee venom, has been widely investigated as a model compound for studies of peptide/lipid and protein/lipid interaction. The peptide induces a wide variety of effects in lipidie environments including increase in ionic permeability, lysis of natural and artificial membranes (Olson et al., 1974; Weissmann et al., 1969), and potentiation of phospholipase A2 activity (Mollay et al., 1976; Yunes et al., 1977). The structure of melittinin several environments, including the crystalline form, aqueous solution, and reconstituted into micelles or lipid vesicles, has been probed with a plethora of physical methods including X-ray diffraction (Terwilliger et al., 1982), NMR1 spectroscopy (Dufourc et al., 1976; Lauterwein et al., 1980; Brown et al., 1982), circular dichroism (Bello et al., 1982), fluorescence spectroscopy (Hermetter & Lakowicz, 1986; Vogel & Jahnig, 1986), and vibrational (IR and Raman) spectroscopies (Levin et al., 1982; Verma et al., 1974; Bernard et al., 1982; Dasseux et al., 1984; Lavialle et al., 1982; Vogel et al., 1983; Vogel & Jahnig, 1986). Such studies have shown that melittin can exist in either monomeric or tetrameric forms and that each form may interact with lipid
