Broad-Spectrum Activity of Antimicrobial Peptoids
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are naturally occurring host defense molecules, representing an evolutionarily ancient, innate immune mechanism against pathogenic infection. As such, many of these predominantly cationic and amphipathic peptides have been examined for their potential as anti-infective...
