Human neutrophil peptide 1 (HNP1) is a human defensin with antimicrobial activity against different bacteria (both Gram‐positive and negative), fungi, and viruses. HNP1 is stored in the cytoplasmic azurophilic granules of neutrophils. To elucidate the mode of action of this antimicrobial peptide, studies based on its lipid selectivity were carried out. Large unilamellar vesicles with different lipid...
Psd1, a 46 amino acid residues defensin isolated from the pea Pisum sativum seeds, exhibits anti-fungal activity by a poorly understood mechanism of action. In this work, the interaction of Psd1 with biomembrane model systems of different lipid compositions was assessed by fluorescence spectroscopy. Partition studies showed a marked lipid selectivity of this antimicrobial peptide (AMP) toward lipid...
