Short Analogues of Cathelicidins Pmap-36 and Bmap-27: Structure-activity Relationship and Stability to Proteolysis
Year: 2024
Type: conference-abstract
Abstract: IntroductionDue to the widespread use of antibiotics, bacterial antibiotic resistance has become a major global health problem in recent years.PMAP-36 and BMAP-27 are natural antimicrobial peptides that belong to the cathelicidin family and have broad-spectrum antibacterial activity.The mechanism of action of these peptides hampers the development of bacterial resistance, making them promising for the development of new drugs.This work was supported by the NextGenerationEU-
