TL;DR: A tool for AMP prediction (Special Prediction (SP) tool) was developed and made available and one synthetic D-peptide (SP15D) possesses one of the lowest values of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) among all DBAASP database short peptides, while being highly stable against proteases and having a high therapeutic index.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physicochemical Features and Peculiarities of Interaction of AMP with the Membrane
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of mechanisms and results of interactions of antimicrobial peptides with the cell membrane, relying on the survey of physicochemical, aggregative, and structural features of AMPs, is presented.

Transmembrane and Antimicrobial Peptides. Hydrophobicity, Amphiphilicity and Propensity to Aggregation
TL;DR: This review analyzes the data about hydrophobicity, amphiphilicity and intrinsic aggregation propensities available in literature in order to compare antimicrobial and transmembrane peptides and show what is the common and what are the difference in this respect between them.

Physicochemical Features and Peculiarities of Interaction of Antimicrobial Peptides with the Membrane
TL;DR: The survey of the knowledge on sequences, structures, and modes of actions of AMP allows concluding that, only the physicochemical features of AMPs give the capability to perform the unambiguous classification.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
DBAASP Special prediction as a tool for the prediction of antimicrobial potency against particular target species
Boris Vishnepolsky,Maya Grigolava,Giorgi Zaalishvili,Margarita Karapetian,Malak Pirtskhalava +4 more
TL;DR: The results have shown the justification of using special prediction tool for the design of new AMPs, and peptides predicted as active against E-coli and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 have been synthesized, and tested in vitro.
