Abstract

L'invention concerne un peptide à activité lytique, ayant une hélice α amphiphatique d'une longueur suffisante et d'une nature appropriée, pour permettre au peptide d'avoir une activité lytique. L'extrémité N-terminale et/ou l'extrémité C-terminale de ce peptide comprend un ou plusieurs groupes qui produisent une augmentation de la charge positive du peptide par rapport à la charge du peptide ayant la même séquence d'aminoacides et la même structure, mais ne comprenant pas ce ou ces groupes. L'invention concerne, également, des procédés d'activation et d'inactivation de la fonction lytique, des compositions pharmaceutiques et des méthodes de traitement.
