Activity modulation of the Escherichia coli F1FO ATP synthase by a designed antimicrobial peptide via cardiolipin sequestering
Summary: Most antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) exert their microbicidal activity through membrane permeabilization. The designed AMP EcDBS1R4 has a cryptic mechanism of action involving the membrane hyperpolarization of Escherichia coli, suggesting that EcDBS1R4 may hinder processes involved in membran...
