Computer-Aided Design of Antimicrobial Lipopeptides as Prospective Drug Candidates

The authors focus on the properties of various lipopeptides which are produced as metabolites by bacteria and have shown to have antimicrobial properties. They provide a step-by-step method in identifying drug molecules for target compounds and testing various properties for drug efficacy. Both experienced researchers and beginners will benefit.
