Structural and Functional Characterization of a Novel Recombinant Antimicrobial Peptide from <i>Hermetia illucens</i>
Antibiotics are commonly used to treat pathogenic bacteria, but their prolonged use contributes to the development and spread of drug-resistant microorganisms raising the challenge to find new alternative drugs. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small/medium molecules ranging 10–60 residues synthesi...
