Journal ArticleDOI

APD3: the antimicrobial peptide database as a tool for research and education

TL;DR: Newly annotated are AMPs with antibiofilm, antimalarial, anti-protist, insecticidal, spermicidal, chemotactic, wound healing, antioxidant and protease inhibiting properties and various database applications in research and education are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

APD2: the updated antimicrobial peptide database and its application in peptide design

TL;DR: Using frequently occurring residues, database-aided peptide design in different ways is demonstrated, and GLK-19 showed a higher activity against Escherichia coli than human LL-37 and Leu, Ala, Gly and Lys in amphibian peptides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solution Structures of Human LL-37 Fragments and NMR-Based Identification of a Minimal Membrane-Targeting Antimicrobial and Anticancer Region

TL;DR: It is proposed that hydrophobic defects in the new amphipathic structure of the D-peptide provide a structural basis for the improvement in cell selectivity of the LL-37 fragment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation of Three-dimensional Structures with the Antibacterial Activity of a Group of Peptides Designed Based on a Nontoxic Bacterial Membrane Anchor

TL;DR: 31P solid state NMR spectroscopy of lipid bilayers showed that the extent of lipid vesicle disruption by these peptides is proportional to their membrane perturbation potential, which is defined by interfacial hydrophobic patches and basic residues in the case of cationic peptides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cloning, expression, isotope labeling, and purification of human antimicrobial peptide LL-37 in Escherichia coli for NMR studies.

TL;DR: The successful application to the expression of the 66-residue cytoplasmic tail of human MUC1 indicates that the system can be applied to other peptides as well, and indicates a broader application of formic acid than cyanogen bromide in cleaving fusion proteins.
