Thermodynamic and kinetic effects on the activity and selectivity of antimicrobial peptides

Year: 2024

Type: conference-abstract

Abstract: What have we learned about antimicrobial peptides (AMPs)?• Produced by all organism• Short sequences (10-50 a.a.)• Cationic and amphipatic • Kill pathogens rapidly by making their membrane permeable • Selective (due to the different composition of bacterial and host membranes) S. aureus E. coli
