N-Terminal Fatty Acid Substitution Increases the Leishmanicidal Activity of CA(1-7)M(2-9), a Cecropin-Melittin Hybrid Peptide

In order to improve the leishmanicidal activity of the synthetic cecropin A-melittin hybrid peptide CA(1-7)M(2-9) (KWKLFKKIGAVLKVL-NH(2)), a systematic study of its acylation with saturated linear fatty acids was carried out. Acylation of the N(ɛ)-7 lysine residue led to a drastic decrease in leishm...
