Kód oboru RIV: CC - Organická chemie
In our laboratory we have discovered 18 novel antimicrobial peptides isolated from 9 species of wild bee. Fifteen of them belong to the category of linear peptides, which form amphipathic alpha-helical conformations in the presence of membrane-mimicking environment such SDS or organic solvents like trifluoroethanol. One subgroup represents peptides having Pro at position 11 that causes a kink in peptide helical structure. AMPs of the second subgroup do not contain Pro in their sequence. We have also identified unique 25 to 27 residues long AMP containing two intramolecular disulfide bridges. We prepared analogs with improve biological properties.
