Protegrin 1 (PG-1) is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial peptide that contains 18 amino acid residues (RG GRLCYCRRRFCVCVGR) and has two intramolecular cystine disulfide bonds. To determine the minimal structure responsible for protegrin-mediated activity

Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Capnocytophaga spp. are gram-negative bacteria implicated in the etiology of periodontal disease (particularly in individuals with neutrophil defects) and life-threatening systemic infections. They are resista

The ontogeny of a 57-Kd cationic antimicrobial protein (CAP57) that has substantial similarities to bactericidal permeability increasing protein (BPI) has been determined immunocytochemically. CAP57 was detected in the granules of mature peripheral b

Lysosomal cathepsin G from human neutrophils is a chymotrypsin-like protease which also possesses antimicrobial activity. The antimicrobial activity, however, is independent of protease activity, because treatment of this enzyme with the irreversible

Efflux pumps can make a significant contribution to the capacity of bacteria to resist the action of antibiotics. Certain efflux pumps also recognize antimicrobial agents that are present in their respective hosts and their ability to export toxic ag

A cluster of 18 open reading frames (ORFs), 15 of which are homologous to genes involved in division and cell wall synthesis, has been identified in Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis. The three additional ORFs, internal to the dcw clus
We developed a sensitive and quantitative radial diffusion method to ascertain the susceptibility of six strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to antimicrobial peptides derived from mammalian leukocytes. The test organisms included the well-characterized

Human neutrophil lysosomal cathepsin G (cat G) exerts broad-spectrum antibacterial action in vitro against Gram-negative and -positive bacteria independent of its serine protease activity. We recently determined that an internal peptide of cat G (HPQ

The resistance of a piliated, transparent variant of Neisseria gonorrhoeae FA19 to intraleukocytic killing by human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) was examined. In both aerobic and anaerobic PMN monolayers, approximately 2% of the intracellular

Several iron-regulated proteins of Neisseria gonorrhoeae have been reported. One of these, a 37,000-molecular-weight protein (37K protein), appears to be common to all gonococcal isolates. Recently, the occurrence of a similar protein has also been n
