Design of Stapled Antimicrobial Peptides that Overcome Antibiotic Resistance and In Vivo Toxicity

The clinical translation of cationic alpha-helical antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) has been hindered by structural instability, proteolytic degradation, and in vivo toxicity from non-specific membrane lysis. Although analyses of hydrophobic content and charge distribution have informed the design of s...
