This comprehensive book is organized into 16 chapters, each carefully sequenced and preceded by chapters that explore historical developments and their crucial role as regulatory molecules in the innate defense mechanism. Special emphasis is placed on purification techniques and characterization methodologies that facilitate interdisciplinary research. The chapters present an extensive inventory of various antimicrobial peptides derived from diverse organisms, including bacteria, fungi, insects, amphibians, plants, and mammals. A dedicated section on marine ecosystems expands readers' understanding of marine-based antimicrobial peptides. Furthermore, additional sections offer insightful overviews on peptides with antiviral properties and those specifically designed to target multi-drug-resistant bacteria. Recent reports and mechanistic insights into resistance against antimicrobial peptides are also included, along with valuable perspectives on the challenges and future prospects of peptide drug development.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 564g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 151 x 228 x 22 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780323856829\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44096333480186,"sku":"9780323856829","price":61.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1671186577678_book.jpg?v=1671358592","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/antimicrobial-peptides-challenges-and-future-perspectives-9780323856829","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
