Abstract
SUMMARY: AMPA is a web application for assessing the antimicrobial domains of proteins, with a focus on the design on new antimicrobial drugs. The application provides fast discovery of antimicrobial patterns in proteins that can be used to develop new peptide-based drugs against pathogens. Results are shown in a user-friendly graphical interface and can be downloaded as raw data for later examination. AVAILABILITY: AMPA is freely available on the web at http://tcoffee.crg.cat/apps/ampa. The source code is also available in the web.
