Optimizing antifungal properties of tetrabranched peptide B4010.
B4010 is a new tetrabranched antifungal peptide that depolarizes and permeabilizes the cytoplasmic membrane. However, the role of the different amino acid components is not clear. It was hypothesized that alanine scanning, a method of replacing each amino acid with alanine, could identify the amino...
