Elucidating the mechanism of peptide interaction with membranes using the intrinsic fluorescence of tryptophan: Perpendicular penetration of cecropin B-like peptides into Pseudomonas aeruginosa
The importance of small molecular weight antimicrobial peptides as novel therapeutic agents stems from their ability to act against bacteria, viruses, and fungi. As part of the innate immune system, they are also capable of killing cancerous cells. Herein, we study the interaction between a syntheti...
