Identification of the scorpion venom-derived antimicrobial peptide Hp1404 as a new antimicrobial agent against carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii
Abstract
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is becoming a troublesome issue worldwide, and anti-CRAB drug research and development is urgently needed. To identify new anti-CRAB drug leads, we investigated seven scorpion venom-derived α-helical peptides that differ in their sequence composition and length. Three peptides, Hp1404, ctriporin and Im5, showed antimicrobial activities against Acinetobacter baumannii. Further antimicrobial...
