Antibacterial peptides from thermophilic bacteria
It is becoming interestingly apparent that innovations of the classical antibiotics are not effective, that induces need for novel drugs. Peptide antibiotics exhibit a group of secondary metabolites with hydrophobic and cyclic structures containing d-amino acidc like compounds with more resistant to proteolytic degradation. Bacterial peptides can possess bactericidal, fungicidal, metal chelatin...
متن کاملExtremely Thermophilic Marine Bacteria
A novel extremely thermophilic bacterium was isolated from a shallow marine hydrothermal vent environment (depth, 22 m) in Tachibana Bay, Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan. The cells of this organism were gramnegative rods. Growth occurred at temperatures between 50 and 85°C (optimum temperature, 80°C; doubling time at optimum temperature, 90 min), at pH 5.5 and 9.0 (optimum pH, 7.0), and in the prese...
متن کاملStimuli-responsive self-assembling peptides made from antibacterial peptides.
How to use bioactive peptide sequences as fundamental building blocks to make hydrogel materials which are stimuli-responsive? In this article, we provide a novel designed peptide comprising two antibacterial peptide sequences (KIGAKI)3-NH2 and a central tetrapeptide linker. Results show that balancing the forces of the electrostatic repulsion of the charged lysine residues against the hydropho...
متن کاملIsolation of antibacterial material-producing bacteria from saline soil
Saline soils are widely spread in Iran. These intact soils are a great source for the isolation of new bacteria with highly functional metabolites in biotechnology. Actinomycete strains were isolated on starch casein agar and ISP2 with different concentrations of sodium chloride (0, 5 and 10%) from treated soil samples. Pure colonies were cultured on a casein glycerol medium. After complete gro...
متن کاملAntibacterial Peptides: A Review
Antibacterial peptides (APs), small molecules composed of less than fifty amino acid residues, are important components of the innate immune system. APs are produced by almost all living organisms in a defense strategy against invading pathogens. APs can be divided into many subtypes following different criteria: origin, size, structure, mechanism of action, etc... Despite their great diversity...
