Box 1: Why are StarCore Proteins Difficult to Express?

Based on the results of the Testing and Modeling groups, we arrived at the following simple model for how StarCores function.


  • StarCores act by destabilizing the bacterial membrane, similar to conventional AMPs.


  • StarCore activity is mediated by a nonspecific mechanism, probably charge.

  • AMP-Core fusions are difficult to express, probably because the do not fold well.
