The problem of drug resistance due to long-term use of antibiotics has been a concern for
years. As this problem grows worse, infections caused by multiple bacteria are expanding …

Bacterial infections caused by 'superbugs' are increasing globally, and conventional
antibiotics are becoming less effective against these bacteria, such that we risk entering a …

The human gut microbiome encodes a large variety of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), but
the short lengths of AMPs pose a challenge for computational prediction. Here we combined …

Neuromorphic computing, a computing paradigm inspired by the human brain, enables
energy-efficient and fast artificial neural networks. To process information, neuromorphic …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are distributed across all kingdoms of life and are an
indispensable component of host defenses. They consist of predominantly short cationic …

Systematically identifying functional peptides is difficult owing to the vast combinatorial
space of peptide sequences. Here we report a machine-learning pipeline that mines the …

There has been an exponential increase in the design of synthetic antimicrobial peptides
(AMPs) for its use as novel antibiotics. Synthetic AMPs are substantially enriched in residues …

Cationic host defence peptides (CHDP), also known as antimicrobial peptides, are naturally
occurring peptides that can combat infections through their direct microbicidal properties …

Abstract The Database of Antimicrobial Activity and Structure of Peptides (DBAASP) is an
open-access, comprehensive database containing information on amino acid sequences …

Antibiotic resistance caused by antibiotic abuse, especially the emergence of multi-drug
resistant bacteria, poses a serious threat to human health, and makes it imperative to find …
