Antimicrobial peptides are made by lower and higher organisms responding to pathogenic challenges. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) kill the invading pathogens and modulate the innate immune response. They are commonly classified according to their sources, amino-acid-rich species, structural characteristics, and activities. In multicellular organisms and humans, they are localized into specific sites commonly exposed to microbes (i.e., mucosa epithelia and skin).

Abstract

Antimicrobial peptides are made by lower and higher organisms responding to pathogenic challenges. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) kill the invading pathogens and modulate the innate immune response. They are commonly classified according to their sources, amino-acid-rich species, structural characteristics, and activities. In multicellular organisms and humans, they are localized into specific sites commonly exposed to microbes (i.e., mucosa epithelia and skin).
