Small Cationic Peptides: Influence of Charge on Their Antimicrobial Activity

[Image: see text] The first stage of the action mechanism of small cationic peptides with antimicrobial activity is ruled by electrostatic interactions between the peptide and the pathogen cell membrane. Thus, an increase in its activity could be expected with an increase in the positive charge on t...
