Table S1 - An FPGA Implementation to Detect Selective Cationic Antibacterial Peptides

Structured and unstructured antibacterial peptides. Antibacterial peptide sequences used to test the method to discriminate structured from non-structured peptides. ID refers to the number identification reported in the Antimicrobial Peptide Database (Wang, Z. and Wang, G. (2004) APD: the Antimicrobial Peptide Database. Nucleic Acids Research 32, D590–D592); NS indicated that the peptide sequence is Not Specified in the APD and were obtained elsewhere (del Rio G, Castro-Obregon S, Rao R, Ellerby HM, Bredesen DE. 2001. APAP, a sequence-pattern recognition approach identifies substance P as a potential apoptotic peptide. FEBS Lett. 494:213–219); Sequence reports the corresponding peptide sequence using the single-letter amino acid code. The antibacterial peptides reported to be non-structured in water solution are in indicated with a gray background and the structured ones are in white cells in the table. (DOC)
