Enhanced Amphiphilic Profile of a Short β-Stranded Peptide Improves Its Antimicrobial Activity
SB056 is a novel semi-synthetic antimicrobial peptide with a dimeric dendrimer scaffold. Active against both Gram-negative and -positive bacteria, its mechanism has been attributed to a disruption of bacterial membranes. The branched peptide was shown to assume a β-stranded conformation in a lipidic...
