Transmission electron microscopic observations of membrane effects of antibiotic cecropin B on Escherichia coli

The pathway of cell membrane lysis by the peptide antibiotic cecropin B (CB), which contains both a hydrophobic and an amphipathic α‐helix, was analysed by assessing the morphological changes of Escherichia coli following treatment with the peptide. Exposure of green fluorescent protein (GFP)‐expres...
