Abstract
⺠Underinvestigated Pseudomonas-lipopeptides were screened for antibiotic activity. ⺠Lipodipeptide SB-253514 possesses significant antibacterial activity. ⺠All CLPs showed high membrane binding affinity and insertion tendency. ⺠Membrane disintegration is not key for the antibiotic mode of action. ⺠The data imply a targeted mechanism for the antimicrobial activity of SB-253514.
