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