New potential antimicrobial peptides with amazing symmetrical structure in fungi and insects

2025-12-22

Abstract excerpt

We have discovered a new family of genes encoding potential antimicrobial peptides with unique compact and elegant structure in the genomes of several Fungi and some arthropod species. Their expression products are constituted of about 85 amino acids, including a signal peptide, and are folded into two α-helical segments connected by a short unstructured coil. Three conserved disulphide bridges between cysteines l...
