Ultrashort antibacterial and antifungal lipopeptides [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2006
Host-defense cationic antimicrobial peptides (≈12–50 aa long) play an essential protective role in the innate immune system of all organisms. Lipopeptides, however, are produced only in bacteria and fungi during cultivation, and they are composed of specific lipophilic moieties attached to anionic peptides (six to seven amino acids)

Characterization of Lipopeptide Biosurfactants Produced by Bacillus licheniformis MB01 from Marine Sediments

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Antibiotic resistance has become one of the world’s most severe problems because of the overuse of antibiotics. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are more difficult to kill and more expensive to treat. Researchers have been studied on antibiotic alternatives

Highly Immunogenic Nanoparticles Based on a Fusion Protein Comprising the M2e of Influenza A Virus and a Lipopeptide

Viruses, 2020
The highly conserved extracellular domain of the transmembrane protein M2 (M2e) of the influenza A virus is a promising target for the development of broad-spectrum vaccines. However, M2e is a poor immunogen by itself and must be linked to an appropriate

Genotoxicity of cationic lipopeptide nanoparticles

Toxicology Letters, 2020
The genotoxicity of cationic lipopeptide nanoparticles (cLPNPs) was evaluated in vivo and in vitro comet assay and the in vivo chromosome aberrations test. In vitro comet assay, human blood cells were exposed to cLPNPs at the concentration of 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 100 μg/mL.

Chemical diversity and cellular effects of antifungal cyclic lipopeptides from cyanobacteria.

Physiologia Plantarum : An International Journal for Plant Biology, 2021
Cyanobacteria produce a variety of chemically diverse cyclic lipopeptides with potent antifungal activities. These cyclic lipopeptides have an ampiphatic structure comprised of a polar peptide cycle and hydrophobic fatty acid side chain.
