近年来,一些内源性哺乳动物抗菌肽已被描述。在许多情况下,两性阳离子α -螺旋是一个共同的特征;因此,其他具有这种特性的肽也可能具有抗生素活性。事实上,载脂蛋白E 133-162的一个30-mer肽(LRVRLASHLRKLRKRLLRDADDLQKRLAVY)被发现具有与经典抗生素(庆大霉素)和中性粒细胞来源的抗生素肽(CAP18)相当的抗生素活性。载脂蛋白E 133-162的阳离子性、疏水性和疏水力矩的计算以及螺旋轮图显示其与CAP18非常相似。(C) 2000 Elsevier Science Inc.;版权所有。
In recent years, several endogenous mammalian antibacterial peptides have been described. An amphipathic cationic alpha-helix is a common feature in many cases; therefore, other peptides with this characteristic might also possess antibiotic activity. In fact, a 30-mer peptide of apoprotein E 133-162 (LRVRLASHLRKLRKRLLRDADDLQKRLAVY) was found to have antibiotic activity comparable to those of a classic antibiotic (Gentamicin) and a neutrophil-derived antibiotic peptide (CAP18). Calculation of cationicity, hydrophobicity, and hydrophobic moment and the helical wheel diagram of apoprotein E 133-162 revealed close similarities to CAP18. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Inc.
