“…Although early isolation of many AMPs from natural sources, such as melittin, magainin, and cathelicidins, was promising as substitutes for antibiotics, there are still some obstacles to be solved in natural AMP, including long sequences, high toxicity, and poor antibacterial efficacy (Kim, Jang, Kim, & Cho, ; Ong, Wiradharma, & Yang, ). Therefore, numerous methods, such as de novo (Shao et al, ), sequence modification (truncation/substitution/hybridization; Lyu, Yang, Lyu, Dong, & Shan, ), synthetic combinatorial libraries, and template establishments (Li et al, ), have been developed for peptide design to solve and compensate for the innate deficiency. Additionally, all of these methods are based on analysis of common features of the peptide or systematic screening, such as cationicity, sequence, hydrophobicity, amphiphilicity, and structure, to obtain valuable contribution on the biological activity of the peptides for each parameter (Teixeira, Feio, & Bastos, ).…”
