Abstract
⺠A new Temporin B analog, TB_KKG6A, was designed. ⺠TB_KKG6A is active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. ⺠The peptide strongly interacts with the LPS of E. coli. ⺠The peptide folds into a kinked helix upon interaction with LPS. ⺠The peptide shows very low hemolytic activity.
