Isolation and Optimization of a Broad-Spectrum Synthetic Antimicrobial Peptide, Ap920-WI, from Arthrobacter sp. H5 for the Biological Control of Plant Diseases

Abstract excerpt

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are naturally occurring molecules found in various organisms that can help to defend against invading microorganisms and reduce the likelihood of drug resistance development. This study focused on the isolation of new AMPs from the genome library of a Gram-positive bacterium called Arthrobacter sp. H5. To achieve this, we used the Bacillus subtilis expression system and employed...
