Conformation of a Bactericidal Domain of Puroindoline a: Structure and Mechanism of Action of a 13-Residue Antimicrobial Peptide

Puroindoline a, a wheat endosperm-specific protein containing a tryptophan-rich domain, was reported to have antimicrobial activities. We found that a 13-residue fragment of puroindoline a (FPVTWRWWKWWKG-NH(2)) (puroA) exhibits activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. This sug...
