Disassembling ability of lipopeptide promotes the antibacterial activity
Journal of Colloid and Interface Science(2023)
Abstract
The nanofibers formed by C12H23O-(VVKK)2V-NH2 disassembled by dilution, resulting in its high antibacterial activity via bacterial membrane disruption. Comparatively, the nanofibers formed by C16H31O-(VVKK)2V-NH2 were very stable, which can closely attach on bacterial surface but not permeate bacterial membrane, leading to its low antibacterial activity but high toxicity to human red blood cells.
