FIGURE 1.

3D molecular modeling and helical wheel projections of antimicrobial peptides. 3D molecular modeling of P-6 (A), S-6 (B), and L-6 (C). The red section represents antimicrobial peptides 1–6, and the yellow section represents the added targeted fragment. Helical wheel projections of 1–6 (D), P-6 (E), S-6 (F), and L-6 (G). In the spiral wheel projection, hydrophilic residues appear as circles, hydrophobic residues as diamonds, possibly negatively charged residues as triangles, and possibly positively charged residues as squares. Hydrophobicity is also indicated by color: the most hydrophobic residues are green, hydrophilic residues are red, positively charged ones are blue, and negatively charged ones are purple.
