Modeling selectivity of antimicrobial peptides: how it depends on the presence of host cells and cell density

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), naturally-occurring peptide antibiotics, are known to attack bacteria selectively over the host cells. The emergence of drug-resistant bacteria has spurred much effort in utilizing optimized (more selective) AMPs as new peptide antibiotics. Cell selectivity of these pe...
