Characterization of a Lymphoid Organ Specific Anti-lipopolysaccharide Factor From Shrimp Reveals Structure-Activity Relationship of the LPS-Binding Domain
Anti-lipopolysaccharide factor (ALF) is a kind of important antimicrobial peptides with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activities. The LPS-binding domain (LBD) contributes to the major antimicrobial activity of ALF. However, LBDs from different ALFs share low sequence similarity. The general character...
