Dimerization of antimicrobial peptides: A promising strategy to enhance antimicrobial peptide activity
(2019-01-01)
Antimicrobial resistance is a global health problem with strong social and economic impacts. The development of new antimicrobial agents is considered an urgent challenge. In this regard, Antimicrobial Peptides (AMPs) ...
Interaction between the antimicrobial peptide aurein 1.2 dimer with mannans
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-09-01)
Combinatorial synthesis and directed evolution applied to the production of alpha-helix forming antimicrobial peptides analogues
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2006-12-01)
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are effector molecules of innate immune systems found in different groups of organisms, including microorganisms, plants, insects, amphibians and humans. These peptides exhibit several structural ...
Biophysical Studies of TOAC Analogs of the Ctx(Ile21)-Ha Antimicrobial Peptide Using Liposomes
(2022-06-01)
Antimicrobial peptides (AMP) are innate components of the defense system of many forms of life, composing the first line of defense from invading pathogens. Among many AMPs described in several databases, the Ctx(Ile21)-Ha ...
Study of the antimicrobial peptide indolicidin and a mutant in micelle medium by molecular dynamics simulation
(FUNPEC-EDITORA, 2008)
The antimicrobial peptide indolicidin (IND) and the mutant CP10A in hydrated micelles were studied using molecular dynamics simulations in order to observe whether the molecular dynamics and experimental data could be ...
Synthesis and biophysics studies of threeantimicrobial peptides isolated from the scorpion pandinus imperator
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-09-01)
Chemical and Biological Characteristics of Antimicrobial alpha-Helical Peptides Found in Solitary Wasp Venoms and Their Interactions with Model Membranes
(Mdpi, 2019-10-01)
Solitary wasps use their stinging venoms for paralyzing insect or spider prey and feeding them to their larvae. We have surveyed bioactive substances in solitary wasp venoms, and found antimicrobial peptides together with ...
Study of the antimicrobial peptide indolicidin and mutants in eukaryotic modelled membrane by molecular dynamics simulations
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2011)
In this work the interaction of the antimicrobial peptide indolicidin (IND) and its mutants CP10A and CP11 with a eukaryotic membrane model was examined by molecular dynamics simulations. The aim was to analyse the behaviour ...
Interaction of a synthetic antimicrobial peptide with model membrane by fluorescence spectroscopy
(Springer, 2013-12-01)
Static and time-resolved fluorescence of tryptophan and ortho-aminobenzoic acid was used to investigate the interaction of the synthetic antimicrobial peptide L1A (IDGLKAIWKKVADLLKNT-NH2) with POPC and POPC:POPG. N-acetylated ...
Monitoring the positioning of short polycationic peptides in model lipid bilayers by combining hydrogen/deuterium exchange and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry
(Elsevier B.V., 2008-12-01)
Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) was used to analyze the hydrogen/deuterium exchange properties of the mastoparan peptide Apoica-MP during interactions with lipid vesicle membranes. Synthetic peptide was ...
