Role of arginine and lysine in the antimicrobial mechanism of histone-derived antimicrobial peptides.
Translocation of cell-penetrating peptides is often promoted by increased content of arginine or other guanidinium groups. However, relatively little research has considered the role of these functional groups on antimicrobial peptide activity. This study compared the activity of three histone-derived antimicrobial peptides-buforin II, DesHDAP1, and parasin-with variants that contain only lysin...
متن کاملTheoretical Thermodynamic Study of Arginine and Lysine Amino Acids at different Solvents
The thermodynamic functions such as enthalpy, H°, Gibbs free energy, G°, and entropy, S°, of Arginine and Lysine amino acids were theoretically studied at different polar solvents by using ²Gaussian o3², software. First, the structural optimization of isolated Arginine and Lysine were done in the gas phase by applying the Density Functional Theory (B3LYP) level ...
متن کاملIn Vitro Evaluation of Cytotoxicity and Permeation Study on Lysine- and Arginine-Based Lipopeptides with Proven Antimicrobial Activity.
Owing to their excellent antimicrobial activities with a relatively low cost of production, lipopeptides are being intensively investigated as potential alternatives to popular antimicrobials. However, a critical obstacle for their application is a relatively high toxicity, hence a lot of attention has been paid to designing new molecules with optimal properties. In this study we synthesized th...
متن کاملRibonucleolytic activity of angiogenin: essential histidine, lysine, and arginine residues.
The homology of angiogenin and pancreatic RNase A provides a compelling reason to systematically compare the characteristics of the two proteins using the chemical modification approaches that proved essential to understanding the action of RNase. Reagents specific for histidine, lysine, and arginine markedly decrease the ribonucleolytic activity of angiogenin, much as has been observed for RNa...
متن کاملArginine and Lysine Transporters Are Essential for Trypanosoma brucei
For Trypanosoma brucei arginine and lysine are essential amino acids and therefore have to be imported from the host. Heterologous expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants identified cationic amino acid transporters among members of the T. brucei AAAP (amino acid/auxin permease) family. TbAAT5-3 showed high affinity arginine uptake (Km 3.6 ± 0.4 μM) and high selectivity for L-arginine. L-...
