## Abstract Most antimicrobial peptides exert their activity by interacting with bacterial membranes, thus perturbing their permeability. They are investigated as a possible solution to the insurgence of bacteria resistant to the presently available antibiotic drugs. However, several different mode

## Abstract Pep‐1‐K (PK) is a good cell‐selective antimicrobial peptide designed from cell‐penetrating peptide Pep‐1. To develop novel short antimicrobial peptides with higher cell selectivity and shorter length compared with PK, several PK analogs were designed by the deletion, addition and/or sub
