Antimicrobial peptides are valuable agents to fight antibiotic resistance. These amphipatic species display positively charged and hydrophobic amino acids. Here, we enhance the local hydrophobicity of a model peptide derived from human lysozyme (107RKWVWWRNR115) by arylation of its tryptophan (Trp) residues, which renders a positive effect on Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis growth...
The most challenging target in the design of new antimicrobial agents is the development of antibiotic resistance. Antimicrobial peptides are good candidates as lead compounds for the development of novel anti‐infective drugs. Here we propose the sequential substitution of each Ala residue present in a lead peptide with known antimicrobial activity by specific amino acids, rationally chosen, that...
