Probing the role of Proline in the antimicrobial activity and lipopolysaccharide binding of indolicidin.

Bera S1, Ghosh A1, Sharma S1, Debnath T1, Giri B2, Bhunia A3.
Journal of colloid and interface science.J Colloid Interface Sci.2015 Aug 15;452:148-59. doi: 10.1016/j.jcis.2015.04.031. Epub 2015 Apr 25.
HYPOTHESIS: Indolicidin (ILPWKWPWWPWRR-NH2), an antimicrobial peptide from bovine neutrophils, possesses significant antibacterial activity. An interesting feature of indolicidin is its unusually high content of Tryptophan and Proline residues. While the involvement of Tryptophan has been studied fo
