Mechanisms of antibacterial action of tachyplesins and polyphemusins, a group of antimicrobial peptides isolated from horseshoe crab hemocytes.

Tachyplesins I and II and polyphemusins I and II, cationic peptides isolated from the hemocytes of horseshoe crabs, show bactericidal activities with similar efficiencies for both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. Tachyplesin I inhibited bacterial growth irreversibly within 40 min. A subinhi...
