Transmembrane and Antimicrobial Peptides. Hydrophobicity, Amphiphilicity and Propensity to Aggregation [PDF]
Development of the new antimicrobial agents against antibiotic resistance pathogens is the nowadays challenge. Antimicrobial peptides (AMP) occur as important defence agents in many organisms and offer a viable alternative to conventional antibiotics.

The role of the peptides in enzymes at the origin of live [PDF]
The peptides in biosystems are homochiral polymers of L-amino acids, but razemisate slowly by an active isomerization kinetics. The chemical reactions in biosystems are, however, reversible and what racemisates the peptides at the water activity in the biosystems can ensure homochirality at a smaller activity.
