AMP THERAPEUTICS - ANTIMICROBIAL PEPTIDES

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are found in virtually every species, from microbes to humans. They comprise the first line of defense against infection through the innate immune system. The AMPT portfolio of unique antimicrobial peptides overcomes many of the issues associated with AMPs as anti-bacterial therapeutics, most notably potency, spectrum, stability and toxicity. The unique mechanism of action of these compounds and the low rate of resistance development positions these molecules as the next generation of novel anti-bacterials. In addition to their potential as stand-alone therapeutics, the AMPT portfolio, in combination with EnBiotix’s engineered bacteriophage platform, further enhances the scope and capabilities of both platforms.
