PepW

PepW is a potent antimicrobial peptide targeting the capsule of multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (MIC=2-8 μM) . PepW achieves bactericidal activity via capsule polysaccharide aggregation and structural disruption. PepW is promising for research of infectious diseases caused by Gram-negative bacteria (e.g., pneumonia, sepsis) [1].
