Da Hora G, Archilha N, Lopes J, Muller D, Coutinho K, Itri R, et al.
Soft Matter . 2016 Oct; 12(43):8884-8898. PMID: 27722742
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are cationic peptides that kill bacteria with a broad spectrum of action, low toxicity to mammalian cells and exceptionally low rates of bacterial resistance. These features have...

Lorenzon E, Riske K, Troiano G, Da Hora G, Soares T, Cilli E
Biochim Biophys Acta . 2016 Feb; 1858(6):1129-38. PMID: 26874207
The mechanism of action of antimicrobial peptides depends on physicochemical properties such as structure, concentration, and oligomerization. Here, we focused on the effect of dimerization on the mechanism of action...

Straatsma T, Soares T
Proteins . 2008 Jul; 74(2):475-88. PMID: 18655068
The N-terminal domain of outer membrane protein OprF of Pseudomonas aeruginosa forms a membrane spanning eight-stranded antiparallel beta-barrel domain that folds into a membrane channel with low conductance. The structure...
