Antimicrobial peptides from marine animals: Sources, structures, mechanisms and the potential for drug development
The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has become a major challenge in current clinical treatment. As essential natural molecules involved in innate immunity, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have the potential to break the limits of antibiotic resistance. While AMPs are widely presented in var...
