Development of a novel antimicrobial peptide AWRK6
We have previously identified an antimicrobial peptide called dybowskin2-CDYa (Dy2) in the cutaneous secretion from the Chinese frog Rana dybowskii. In this study, we used Dy2 as a template to prepare some novel peptides with improved stability and hydrophobicity. The antimicrobial activities exerte...
