Objective:
Using known antimicrobial peptides from Nebraska Database extract motifs that can be used to create new active peptides with desired properties.

Technologies and Methodologies Used:
Motif Discovery
Scoring Algorithms
Clustering Algorithms
Cleanup Algorithms
Tiling Algorithms
Design Algorithms

Status Update:
After the 4th phase of design we managed to create a robust and rigorous enough algorithm that can generate consistently active peptides.
