Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising next generation antibiotics that hold great
potential for combating bacterial resistance. AMPs can be both bacteriostatic and …

In many branches of materials science it is now routine to generate data sets of such large
size and dimensionality that conventional methods of analysis fail. Paradigms and tools from …

There are some∼ 1,100 known antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which permeabilize
microbial membranes but have diverse sequences. Here, we develop a support vector …

Translocation of cell-penetrating peptides is often promoted by increased content of arginine
or other guanidinium groups. However, relatively little research has considered the role of …

Short cationic, amphipathic antimicrobial peptides are multi-functional molecules that have
roles in host defense as direct microbicides and modulators of the immune response. While …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a diverse class of well-studied membrane-permeating
peptides with important functions in innate host defense. In this short review, we provide a …

Antimicrobial polymers have emerged as a potential solution to the growing problem of
antimicrobial resistance. Although several studies have examined the effects of various …

The M2 protein is a multifunctional protein, which plays several roles in the replication cycle
of the influenza A virus. Here we focus on its ability to promote budding of the mature virus …

Research on antimicrobial peptides is in part driven by urgent medical needs such as the
steady increase in pathogens being resistant to antibiotics. Despite the wealth of information …
