Prediction and Activity of a Cationic α-Helix Antimicrobial Peptide ZM-804 from Maize
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small molecules consisting of less than fifty residues of amino acids. Plant AMPs establish the first barrier of defense in the innate immune system in response to invading pathogens. The purpose of this study was to isolate new AMPs from the <i>Zea mays</i...
