Enantiomeric Effect of d-Amino Acid Substitution on the Mechanism of Action of α-Helical Membrane-Active Peptides
V13K, a 26-residue peptide, has been shown to have strong antimicrobial activity, negligible hemolytic activity, and significant anticancer activity. In the present work, V13K was used as the framework to investigate the influence of helicity, as influenced by d-amino acid substitutions in the cente...
