Outer-membrane permeabilization, LPS transport inhibition: activity, interactions, and structures of thanatin derived antimicrobial peptides

Currently, viable antibiotics available to mitigate infections caused by drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria are highly limited. Thanatin, a 21-residue-long insect-derived antimicrobial peptide (AMP), is a promising lead molecule for the potential development of novel antibiotics. Thanatin is extr...
