Bead diffusion assay for discovering antimicrobial cyclic peptides.

چکیده
A combinatorial library of 15,536 cyclic decapeptide analogues of tyrocidine A and gramicidin S was prepared on photocleavable TentaGel beads. The beads were photolyzed without solvent, and spread onto an agar plate inoculated with bacterial lawn. Clear zones were formed around beads carrying antimicrobially active peptides such as E18 c(kVOrnLfThiYOrnLq), which inhibited growth of B. subtilis and selected MRSA strains.

Marked increase in membranolytic selectivity of novel cyclic tachyplesins constrained with an antiparallel two-beta strand cystine knot framework.
We have developed a highly constrained 18-residue cyclic peptide template based on the antimicrobial peptide tachyplesin-1 that features an end-to-end peptide backbone and a cystine knot-like motif with three evenly spaced disulfide bonds to cross-brace the antiparallel beta-strands and to approximate an amphiphatic "beta-tile"-like structure. Six beta-tile analogs were prepared to correlate di...
متن کاملCyclic Peptides as Therapeutic Agents and Biochemical Tools
There are many cyclic peptides with diverse biological activities, such as antibacterial activity, immunosuppressive activity, and anti-tumor activity, and so on. Encouraged by natural cyclic peptides with biological activity, efforts have been made to develop cyclic peptides with both genetic and synthetic methods. The genetic methods include phage display, intein-based cyclic peptides, and mR...
متن کاملA One-Bead One-Peptide Combinatorial Library Method for B-Cell Epitope Mapping
The one-bead one-peptide combinatorial library method represents a powerful approach to the discovery of binding peptides for various macromolecular targets. It involves the synthesis of millions of peptides on beads such that each bead displays only one peptide entity. The peptide-beads that interact with a specific macromolecular target are then isolated for structure determination. We have a...
متن کاملMagnetic bead-based phage anti-immunocomplex assay (PHAIA) for the detection of the urinary biomarker 3-phenoxybenzoic acid to assess human exposure to pyrethroid insecticides.
Noncompetitive immunoassays are advantageous over competitive assays for the detection of small molecular weight compounds. We recently demonstrated that phage peptide libraries can be an excellent source of immunoreagents that facilitate the development of sandwich-type noncompetitive immunoassays for the detection of small analytes, avoiding the technical challenges of producing anti-immunoco...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Cyclic Peptides for Plant Disease Control
Antimicrobial cyclic peptides derived from microbes bind stably with target sites, have a tolerance to hydrolysis by proteases, and a favorable degradability under field conditions, which make them an attractive proposition for use as agricultural fungicides. Antimicrobial cyclic peptides are classified according to the types of bonds within the ring structure; homodetic, heterodetic, and compl...
