Addtional InformationFirst isolated by Gran in 1973 (Acta Pharmacol Toxicol (Copenh). 1973;33(5):400-8), the circular structure was established in 1995 (Saether O, et al.), and antimicrobial activity was demonstrated in 1999, thereby establishing it as an AMP. Cellular location: accumulated in vacuole and processed likely by asparaginyl endoproteinase (Conlan BF et al. 2011 Am J Bot 98:2018-26). Structure: there are other PDB entries: 1JJZ, 1NB1, and 1ZNU. You can rotate, zoom, and view the 4TTM structure here in the PDB . Antibacterial activity was salt dependent and the peptide was most active against S. aureus (0.26 uM). The overall fold is important for anti-HIV activity, since the acyclic permutant is inactive. Kalata B1 also has uterotonic and insecticidal activity (natural pesticide). (MOA) An all D-analog is also active, supporting membrane targeting (Sando L. et al. 2011 Chembiochem 12: 2456-62). NMR studies of the ternary complex identified amino acid residues in loop 5 (W23, P24, and V25) and loop 6 (L2, P3, and V4) are important for membrane binding (Shenkarrev ZO et al. 2006 FEBS J 273:2658-72). It binds to phosphatidylethanolamine and leads to pore formation (41-70 A) in lipid bilayers (Huang et al 2009 JBC 284: 20699-20707). Oligomerization on the membrane surface could be important for this process. Note that oxidized forms of this peptide have also been reported. Trp can be oxidized to oxindolylalanine I (oia) or N-formylkynurenine (nfk). The effect of such oxidation on activity is unknown (Plan MR et al 2007 Chembiochem 8:1001-11). It also inhibits the human prolyl oligopeptidase (POP) (Hellinger R et al., 2015). Updated 1/15/2010; 11/9/2011; 1/5/2012; 3/25/2012; reference updated 5/1/2013; 2/2016. | circular structure; G6 is critical to bind phosphatidylethanolamine (Hall et al., 2012 Biochim Biophys Acta 1818:2354).; Synthesis Type : Ribosomal| Modifying the Arg with a keto aldehyde significantly reduced its activity against S.aureus. Two-disulfide synthetic variants exhibited antimicrobial profiles similar to the native peptide.
