CS-AMPPred: an updated SVM model for antimicrobial activity prediction in cysteine-stabilized peptides.

The antimicrobial peptides (AMP) have been proposed as an alternative to control resistant pathogens. However, due to multifunctional properties of several AMP classes, until now there has been no way to perform efficient AMP identification, except through in vitro and in vivo tests. Nevertheless, a...
