An Atomistic view of Short-chain Antimicrobial Biomimetic peptides in Action
Jagannath Mondal, Pushpita Ghosh, Xiao Zhu
This study investigates the membrane interaction of short-chain synthetic {beta}-peptides and finds distinct mechanisms compared to natural antimicrobial peptides, including spontaneous insertion and partial water leakage without full membrane spanning.
