text:
Alamethicin is a channel-forming peptide antibiotic, produced by the fungus Trichoderma viride. It belongs to peptaibol peptides which contain the non-proteinogenic amino acid residue Aib. This residue strongly induces formation of alpha-helical structure. The peptide sequence is where Ac = acetyl, Phl = phenylalaninol, and Aib = 2-Aminoisobutyric acid. In cell membranes, it forms voltage-dependent ion channels by aggregation of four to six molecules.
