Antimicrobial activity of myotoxic phospholipases A2 from crotalid snake venoms and synthetic peptide variants derived from their C-terminal region
(Elsevier, 2005)
A short peptide derived from the C-terminal region of Bothrops asper myotoxin II, a Lys49 phospholipase A2 (PLA2), was previously found to reproduce the bactericidal activity of its parent molecule. In this study, a panel ...
Bactericidal and Antiendotoxic Properties of Short Cationic Peptides Derived from a Snake Venom Lys49 Phospholipase A2
(American Society for Microbiology, 2005-04)
The activities of short synthetic, nonhemolytic peptides derived from the C-terminal region of myotoxin 11, a catalytically inactive phospholipase A(2) homologue present in the venom of the snake Bothrops asper, have been ...
Brucella evades macrophage killing via VirB-dependent sustained interactions with the endoplasmic reticulum
(The Rockefeller University Press, 2003-01-18)
The intracellular pathogen Brucella is the causative agent of brucellosis, a worldwide zoonosis
that affects mammals, including humans. Essential to Brucella virulence is its ability to survive and
replicate inside host ...
