Vaccatides: Antifungal Glutamine-Rich Hevein-Like Peptides from Vaccaria hispanica
Hevein and hevein-like peptides are disulfide-constrained chitin-binding cysteine-rich peptides. They are divided into three subfamilies, 6C-, 8C-, and 10C-hevein-like peptides, based on the number of cysteine residues. In addition, hevein-like peptides can exist in two forms, short and long. The lo...
