Antimicrobial peptides have been isolated and characterized from tissues and organisms representing virtually every kingdom and phylum, ranging from prokaryotes to humans. Yet, recurrent structural and functional themes in mechanisms of action and resistance are observed among peptides of widely div
## Abstract Protaetiamycine is an insect defensin, a naturally occurring 43βaminoβacidβresidue antimicrobial peptide derived from the larvae of the beetle __Protaetia brevitarsis__. In a previous work that aimed at developing short antibiotic peptides, we designed 9βmer peptide analogs of protaetia
## Abstract Pepβ1βK (PK) is a good cellβselective antimicrobial peptide designed from cellβpenetrating peptide Pepβ1. 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
