Abstract
Background: Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are found in the defense system in virtually all life forms, being present in many, if not all, plant species. Objective: The present work evaluated the antimicrobial, enzymatic activity and mechanism of action of the PEF2 fraction from Capsicum chinense Jack. seeds against phytopathogenic fungi. Methods: Peptides were extracted from C. chinense seeds and subjected to reverse-phase chromatography on an...
