摘要

Alamethicin (ALM), a 20-amino acid antibiotic peptide (peptaibol) from fungal sources, was mixed in Langmuir monolayers with six different surfactants: semifluorinated (F6H18, F10H19, F8H10OH, F6H10SH) and hydrogenated (C18SH and DODAC), aimed at finding appropriate molecules for ALM incorporation for nanodevice construction. Alamethicin-containing mixed monolayers were investigated by means of surface manometry (pi-A isotherms) and Brewster angle microscopy (BAM). Our results show that only semifluorinated alkanes can serve as an appropriate material since they form miscible and homogeneous monolayers with ALM within the whole concentration range. All the remaining surfactants, possessing polar groups, were found to demix with ALM. This effect was explained as being due to the existence of strong polar interactions between vertically oriented surfactant molecules, which tend to separate from horizontally oriented a-helices of the peptide. On the contrary, semifluorinated alkanes, lacking any polar group in their structure and bearing a large dipole moment, interact with ALM, also possessing a huge cumulative dipole moment. These dipole-dipole interactions between ALM and SFAs are more attractive than those between SFA molecules in their pure monolayers, causing the large ALM molecule, situated parallel to the interface, to be surrounded by SFA molecules in perpendicular orientation, leading to the formation of a highly organized binary mixed monolayer. BAM images of the ALM monolayer indicate that this peptide collapses with the nucleation and growth mechanism, like the majority of surfactants, which contradicts the model of ALM collapse by desorption, previously published in the literature.
