Antimicrobial Peptide-Polymer Conjugates : A Review of Current Optimization Strategies Pugh, Morgan

Abstract

With the increasing threat of antibiotic resistance, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a promising alternative to traditional antibiotics. To improve mammalian compatibility, AMPs are often conjugated to immunocompatible polymers yielding AMP-polymer conjugates. This review discusses current strategies to optimize AMP-polymer conjugates.
