Photodynamic and peptide-based strategy to inhibit Gram-positive bacterial biofilm formation
(2019-01-01)
The self-produced extracellular polymeric matrix of biofilms renders them difficult to eliminate once they are established. This makes the inhibition of biofilm formation key to successful treatment of biofilm infection. ...
Gill tissues of the mussel Mytilus edulis chilensis: A new source for antimicrobial peptides
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, 2005)
The role of disulfide bridges in the 3-D structures of the antimicrobial peptides gomesin and protegrin-1: a molecular dynamics study
(FUNPEC-EDITORA, 2008)
Some antimicrobial peptides have a broad spectrum of action against many different kinds of microorganisms. Gomesin and protegrin-1 are examples of such antimicrobial peptides, and they were studied by molecular dynamics ...
NMR structures and molecular dynamics simulation of hylin-a1 peptide analogs interacting with micelles
(2017-06-01)
Antimicrobial peptides are recognized candidates with pharmaceutical potential against epidemic emerging multi-drug resistant bacteria. In this study, we use nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and molecular dynamics ...
Structural and biological characterization of two novel peptides from the venom of the neotropical social wasp Agelaia pallipes pallipes
(Elsevier B.V., 2004-07-01)
The venom of the neotropical social wasp Agelaia pallipes pallipes was fractionated by RP-HPLC resulting in the elution of seven fractions; the last two were re-fractionated under RP-HPLC by using isocratic elution conditions ...

Natural Antimicrobial Peptides: Pleiotropic Molecules in Host Defense
(Scientific Research, 2013-12)
Natural antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small cationic molecules that display antimicrobial activity against a wide range of bacteria, fungi and viruses. AMPs are multifunctional molecules that have an essential activity ...
Electrostatic immobilization of antimicrobial peptides on polyethylenimine and their antibacterial effect against Staphylococcus epidermidis
(Elsevier B.V., 2018-04-01)
Staphylococcus epidermidis is a gram-positive bacterium, and one of the most prevalent causes of nosocomial infections due to its strong ability to form biofilms on catheters and surgical implants. Here we explore the ...
Combinatorial synthesis and directed evolution applied to the production of alpha-helix forming antimicrobial peptides analogues
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2014)
