Ocellatin-PT antimicrobial peptides: high-resolution microscopy studies in antileishmania models and interactions with mimetic membrane systems

Although the mechanism of action of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) is not clear, they can interact electrostatically with the cell membranes of microorganisms. New ocellatin-PT peptides were recently isolated from the skin secretion of Leptodactylus pustulatus. The secondary structure of these AMPs a...
