This paper investigates how environmental conditions influence the structural assembly and cytotoxic function of the Staphylococcus aureus virulence peptide PSM1, revealing condition-dependent polymorphic structures and their role in host-cell interactions.

The paper shows RNA modulates assembly and activity of two -helical peptides, PSM3 and LL-37, through phase separation and aggregation dynamics, affecting virulence and host defense.

This study investigates the structural and functional properties of citropin 1.3, an antimicrobial peptide from the Southern bell frog, revealing its ability to form distinct fibrillar structures and interact with membranes and cells.
