Abstract: | Background The mechanism of action of antimicrobial peptides (AMP) was initially correlated with peptide membrane permeation properties.
However, recent evidences indicate that action of a number of AMP is more complex and involves specific interactions at cell
envelopes or with intracellular targets. In this study, a genomic approach was undertaken on the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to characterize the antifungal effect of two unrelated AMP. |
