AH90 peptide |
||
This antimicrobial peptide with the sequence LRPAILVRIKamide has been identified by Ge et al (2014) in skin secretion of wild Peruvian purple-sided leaf frogs, Phyllomedusa baltea. Balteatide exhibits 90 % sequence identity (a single amino acid exchange at position 9) with sauvatide, a potent myotropic peptide from the skin secretion of Phyllomedusa sauvagei. Balteatide is devoid of myotropic activity. Balteatide shows differential activity against the Gram-positive bacterium, Staphylococcus aureus; the Gram-negative bacterium, Escherichia coli; and the yeast, Candida albicans, and is most potent against the yeast. Balteatide has no hemolytic activity up to concentrations
