Self-assembly of glycerol monooleate with the antimicrobial peptide LL-37: a molecular dynamics study

Over the past decade, the rapid increase in the incidence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has promoted research towards alternative therapeutics such as antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), but their biodegradability limits their application. Encapsulation into nanocarriers based on the self-assembly of...
