| Bioactivity | (KFF)3K is a cell penetrating peptide that can promote the absorption of other antibiotics by disrupting the outer membrane of bacteria. (KFF)3K can be introduced into a hydrocarbon scaffold to induce its antibacterial properties, making it an effective antimicrobial peptide. (KFF)3K can be used in the development of new antimicrobial agents[1]. |
