Abstract excerpt
Caerin 1.1 is one of the major antimicrobial peptides isolated from the skin of the Australian green tree frog, Litoria splendida. Two-dimensional 1H-1H and 1H-13C NMR spectroscopy in trifluoroethanol/H2O (50:50, by vol.) have been used to assign the 1H and 13C-NMR spectra of this 25-amino-acid peptide. From an examination of these data, and using distance geometry and molecular dynamics calculations, the...
