Bioevaluation of Ranatuerin-2Pb from the Frog Skin Secretion of <i>Rana pipiens</i> and Its Truncated Analogues

Bioevaluation of Ranatuerin-2Pb from the Frog Skin Secretion of <i>Rana pipiens</i> and Its Truncated Analogues

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are considered as a promising agent to overcome the drug-resistance of bacteria. Large numbers of AMPs have been identified from the skin secretion of <i>Rana pipiens</i>, including brevinins, ranatuerins, temporins and esculentins. In this study, the cDNA p...
