Bactericidal activity of cecropin B and cecropin P1 expressed in fish cells (CHSE-214): application in controlling fish bacterial pathogens

2003-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Cecropins are a group of antimicrobial peptides which have bactericidal activity against a broad range of bacteria. To date, the cecropins used in a variety of studies were either purified from their natural source or obtained by chemical synthesis. The present study was conducted to test whether bactericidally active cecropins could be expressed in a fish cell line. For this purpose, Chinook salmon embryo cells (...
