The order of the amino acids in a polypeptide chain is referred to as its amino acid sequence or primary structure. It is specified by the nucleotide sequence of the encoding gene, and it is assembled in cells through the process called translation.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The amphibian peptide Bv8 induces potent nociceptive sensitization in rodents. Its mammalian homologue, prokineticin 2 (PROK2), is strongly up-regulated in inflamed tissues and is a major determinant in triggering inflammatory

The increasing resistance of bacteria and fungi to the available antibiotic/antimycotic drugs urges for a search for new anti-infective compounds with new modes of action. In line of this, natural CAMPs represent promising and attractive candidates.

Antimicrobial peptides constitute one of the main classes of molecular weapons deployed by the innate immune system of all multicellular organisms to resist microbial invasion. A good proportion of all antimicrobial peptides currently known, numberin

In this study the bactericidal effect of the N-terminal fragment of the frog skin peptide esculentin-1b [Esc(1-18)] in combination with clinically used antimicrobial agents was evaluated against Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, either in standard condit

Mastitis, or inflammation of the mammary gland, is the most common and expensive illness of dairy cows throughout the world. Although stress and physical injuries may give rise to inflammation of the udders, infections by bacteria or other microorgan

The ferroxidase Fet3 and the permease Ftr1 constitute a well-conserved high-affinity iron uptake system in yeast. We have investigated the mechanism of transcriptional regulation of Fet3 in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris. Isolation and func

The small protein Bv8, secreted by the skin of the frog Bombina variegata, belongs to a novel family of secreted proteins whose orthologues have been identified in snakes (MIT) and in mammals (prokineticins (PKs)). A characteristic feature of this pr

High affinity iron uptake in yeast is carried out by a multicomponent system formed by the ferroxidase Fet3p and the iron permease Ftr1p. The currently accepted model predicts that Fet3p and Ftr1p are functionally associated, however, a structural in

We report on two new cyclic 17-residue peptides that we named ranacyclins E and T, the first isolated from Rana esculenta frog skin secretions and the second discovered by screening a cDNA library from Rana temporaria. Ranacyclins have a loop region
