A full order parameter analysis has been carried out on a peptide plane of gramicidin A in aligned phospholipid bilayers. The most ordered molecular axis was determined to be the helical long axis of the molecule, possessing an order parameter of 0·93 ± 0·03 parallel to the bilayer normal, and an axial symmetry of -0·06 ± 0·04.
