In an early branching metazoan, bacterial colonization of the embryo is controlled by maternal antimicrobial peptides.
Early embryos of many organisms develop outside the mother and are immediately confronted with myriads of potential colonizers. How these naive developmental stages control and shape the bacterial colonization is largely unknown. Here we show that early embryonic stages of the basal metazoan Hydra are able to control bacterial colonization by using maternal antimicrobial peptides. Antimicrobial...

The Holo-Transcriptome of a Calcified Early Branching Metazoan
Symbiotic interactions are widespread throughout the animal kingdom and are increasingly recognized as an important trait that can shape the evolution of a species. Sponges are widely understood to be the earliest branching clade of metazoans and often contain dense, diverse yet specific microbial communities which can constitute up to 50% of their biomass. These bacterial communities fulfill d...
متن کاملFocal Targeting of the Bacterial Envelope by Antimicrobial Peptides
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are utilized by both eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. AMPs such as the human beta defensins, human neutrophil peptides, human cathelicidin, and many bacterial bacteriocins are cationic and capable of binding to anionic regions of the bacterial surface. Cationic AMPs (CAMPs) target anionic lipids [e.g., phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and cardiolipins (CL)] in the ce...
متن کاملAntimicrobial peptides targeting bacterial ribosome
Antibiotics kill bacteria by inhibiting vital enzymes involved in cellular metabolism, including protein production. However, extensive and sometimes gratuitous usage of antibiotics has led to microbial resistance, which is constantly emerging against every antibiotic class, raising serious public health concerns and the urgency for the development of new antibacterial therapeutics. Different s...
