The development of bioinformatic and chemoinformatic approaches for structure-activity modelling and discovery of antimicrobial peptides
The emergence of pathogens resistant to available drug therapies is a pressing global health problem. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) may potentially form new therapeutics to counter these pathogens. AMPs are key components in the mammalian innate immune system and are responsible for both direct k...
