Structural dynamics influences the antibacterial activity of a cell-penetrating peptide (KFF)(3)K

Given the widespread demand for novel antibacterial agents, we modified a cell-penetrating peptide (KFF)(3)K to transform it into an antibacterial peptide. Namely, we inserted a hydrocarbon staple into the (KFF)(3)K sequence to induce and stabilize its membrane-active secondary structure. The staple...
