Abstract
⺠Daptomycin is shown to form oligomers on liposome membranes. ⺠Oligomerization depends on presence of phosphatidylglycerol; phosphatidylcholine membranes bind daptomycin but do not induce oligomerization. ⺠Lipid requirements for oligomerization correlate with those for antimicrobial activity.
