Modulation of supramolecular self-assembly of an antimicrobial designer peptide by single amino acid substitution: implications on peptide activity

Hydrophobicity and charge are key properties of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). We compared the self-assembly performance and its correlation with antimicrobial activity of a designer AMP and analogues with substitution of hydrophobic or cationic residues by alanine. Peptides that formed supramolecul...

description Hydrophobicity and charge are key properties of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). We compared the self-assembly performance and its correlation with antimicrobial activity of a designer AMP and analogues with substitution of hydrophobic or cationic residues by alanine. Peptides that formed supramolecular self-assemblies under the studied conditions were those that have higher antimicrobial potency.
