摘要：
To facilitate microbial membrane invasion, amphiphilic alpha-helical antimicrobial peptides (alpha-AMPs) show a spatial segregation of hydrophobic and hydrophilic residues about the alpha-helical long axis. Here we discuss potential mechanisms by which these peptides are able to disrupt membrane structure and the structural characteristics, which are required for function.
