General characteristics
Antimicrobial peptides are typically relatively short (12 to 100 amino acids), have an
overall net positive charge (+2 to +9), and most of them are hydrophobic (is a
requirement for the membrane interaction and insertion).
These peptides can be divided into several groups based on their length, secondary or
tertiary structure, presence or absence of disulfide bridges or mode of action.
