Interactions of two antimicrobial peptides, magainin 2 and indolicidin, with three different model biomembranes, namely, monolayers, large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs), and giant liposomes, were studied. Insertion of both peptides into lipid monolayers was progressively enhanced when the content of an acidic phospholipid, 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoglycerol (POPG) in a film of 1-stearoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (SOPC) was increased. Indolicidin and magainin 2 penetrated also into lipid monolayers containing cholesterol (mole fraction, X = 0.1). Membrane association of magainin 2 attenuated lipid lateral diffusion in POPG-containing LUVs as revealed by the decrease in the excimer/monomer fluorescence ratio I(e)/I(m) for the pyrene fatty-acid-containing phospholipid derivative 1-palmitoyl-2-[10-(pyren-1-yl) decanoyl]-sn-glycero-3-phospho-rac-glycerol (PPDPG). Likewise, an increase in steady-state fluorescence anisotropy of the membrane-incorporated diphenylhexatriene (DPH) was observed, revealing magainin 2 to increase acyl chain order and induce segregation of acidic phospholipids. Similar effects were observed for indolicidin. The topological effects of magainin 2 and indolicidin on phospholipid membranes were investigated using optical microscopy of giant vesicles. Magainin 2 had essentially no influence on either SOPC or SOPC:cholesterol (X = 0.1) giant liposomes. However, effective vesiculation was observed when acidic phospholipid (X(PG) = 0.1) was included in the giant vesicles. Indolicidin caused only a minor shrinkage of giant SOPC vesicles whereas the formation of endocytotic vesicles was observed when the giant liposome contained POPG (X(PG) = 0.1). Interestingly, for indolicidin, vesiculation was also observed for giant vesicles composed of SOPC/cholesterol (X(chol) = 0.1). Possible mechanisms of membrane transformation induced by these two peptides are discussed.
