Discovery of a Novel Antimicrobial Peptide, Temporin-PKE, from the Skin Secretion of <i>Pelophylax kl. esculentus</i>, and Evaluation of Its Structure-Activity Relationships
Bacterial resistance against antibiotics has led to increasing numbers of treatment failures, and AMPs are widely accepted as becoming potential alternatives due to their advantages. Temporin-PKE is a novel peptide extracted from the skin secretion of <i>Pelophylax kl. esculentus</i> and...
