Atomic Force Microscopy Reveals the Mechanobiology of Lytic Peptide Action on Bacteria

Increasing rates of antimicrobial-resistant medically important bacteria require the development of new, effective therapeutics, of which antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are among the promising candidates. Many AMPs are membrane-active, but their mode of action in killing bacteria or in inhibiting the...
