Resistance mechanisms to antimicrobial peptides in Gram-positive bacteria. AMP resistance mechanisms employed by Gram-positive bacteria are shown, including alterations in cell envelope charge/composition; AMP inhibition by binding to surface proteins/released capsular polysaccharide; AMP degradation by bacterial proteases; bacterial adaptation to AMP challenge; AMP extrusion by efflux pumps and transport systems.
