Cecropin B (LCB) is a natural peptide with antibacterial and antifungal properties. The
enantiomer of LCB, containing all-D amino acids (DCB), was synthesized to examine its …

The search for new antimicrobial compounds involves finding novel sources of
chemotherapeutic compounds or manipulating and combining structures from existing …

The lytic peptides, cecropins, were originally isolated from the haemolymph of the giant silk
moth, Hyalophora cecropia and possess antibacterial and anticancer activity in vitro. This …

Cecropins, originally found in insects, are a group of cationic antimicrobial peptides. Most
cecropins have an amphipathic N-terminal segment and a largely hydrophobic C-terminal …

Cecropin is a cationic antibacterial peptide composed of 35–39 residues. This peptide has
been identified as possessing strong antibacterial activity and low toxicity against eukaryotic …

CecropinXJ is a cationic antimicrobial peptide originally isolated from the larvae of Bombyx
mori. In this study, an antibacterial peptide gene of cecropinXJ was cloned into the …

The interaction of cecropin P1 (CP1) with Escherichiacoli was investigated to gain insight
into the time‐dependent antimicrobial action. Biophysical characterizations of CP1 with …

Cecropins are linear cationic antibacterial peptides that have potent activities against
microorganisms. In the present study, a 480bp full-length cDNA encoding diamondback …
