摘要: Hybrid peptides (HP-MA, HP-ME), each of 20 residues and incorporating 2–9 Helicobacter pylori ribosomal protein L1 (HP) 1–12 magainin 2 melittin, were designed. The antibiotic activities these evaluated using bacterial, tumor human erythrocyte cells. HP-MA had a stronger antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria Gram-negative than HP (2-20) 2, HP-ME was similar to melittin. None the hybrids anti-tumor or hemolytic activity. These further investigated an artificial liposomal vesicle 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene as membrane probe, confirmed have activities. effect is probably caused by their ability damage bacterial plasma membrane. Additional circular dichroism spectra suggested that α-helical structure plays important role in but property less connected with enhanced
