摘要

Host-secreted antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are found in virtually all organisms, often providing innate immunity as the first line of defence against pathogens. Many AMPs kill pathogens by disrupting their cellular membranes and thus are similar to some antibiotic drugs. Likely drug candidate AMPs are found in non-mammalian hosts but are also haemolytic. Thus, it is crucial to understand the origins of membrane specificity and selectivity of the action of these AMPs. In this study, the membrane specificity of action of citropin 1.1, a 16-residue AMP, was studied by using a quartz crystal microbalance on the basis of mass and viscoelasticity changes in comparison to aurein 1.2 (13 residues) and maculatin 1.1 (21 residues). The membrane selectivity was largely reflected in the nature of the initial interaction of the peptide with the membrane. This initial interaction might determine whether the peptide transforms into a membrane-disrupting alpha-helical conformation and highlights subtle differences in the repositioning of this alpha-helical peptide in the membrane, as reflected by the viscoelasticity data, thus signifying the mechanistic pathway to membrane disruption.
