Comparison of the antibacterial properties of peptides from the hepatopancreas of red king crab and snow crab and development of an approach for red king crab peptide isolation from the hepatopancreas

The hepatopancreas of crustaceans is an important immune organ involved in the secretion of immune effectors such as antimicrobial peptides. Crustacean antimicrobial peptides are very diverse and have a broad spectrum of activity, but are poorly explored. In this work, the activity of antibacterial...
