Two copies of the 15-amino-acid gramicidin peptide are shown here (<scene name='38/388981/Protein_only/2' oldname='User:Eric_Martz/Sandbox_10/Gramicidin/4'>restore initial scene</scene>) arranged as they are believed to be when they form a channel through a lipid bilayer membrane<ref name="crouzy">PMID: 7529578</ref>. The shape of the protein is shown with tiny dots, inside of which is a ribbon [[backbone]] trace connecting the alpha carbon atoms of each amino acid chain.
