Description

Antimicrobial Peptides – eBook PDF

In Antimicrobial Peptides (PDF) the small team of expert authors provides the field in an accessible and comprehensive manner that is well suited for junior researchers and students.

The result is a systematically structured and highly readable introduction to antimicrobial peptides, their biological function, structure, and mode of action. The authors point the way towards a rational design of this possibly highly effective new class of clinical antibiotics on the edge of industrial application. They do this by debating their design principles, target membranes and structure-activity relationships. The last part of the ebook explains recent successes in the application of peptides as anticancer agents.
