A study on the importance of phenylalanine for aurein functionality.

Protein and peptide letters - 1 Jan 2009

Dennison Sarah R, Harris Frederick, Phoenix David A

Abstract excerpt

Aurein 2.5 (GLFDIVKKVVGAFGSL-NH(2)) is an amphibian antimicrobial peptide. Here, characterisation studies showed the peptide to exhibit molecular areas at an air / water interface (1.77 - 3.1 nm(2)), which are in agreement with the adoption of alpha-helical structures. Lipid monolayer studies sho...
