A new prokaryotic expression vector for the expression of antimicrobial peptide abaecin using SUMO fusion tag

Abstract Background Despite the growing demand for antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) for clinical use as an alternative approach against antibiotic-resistant bacteria, the manufacture of AMPs relies on expensive, small-scale chemical methods. The small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) tag is industrial...
