Identification and activity assessment of a bioactive peptide QUB-1460 from the skinsecretion of the Northeast Forest Frog (Rana dybowskii)
Listed in ZivaHub and Deakin Research Online and DMU Figshare — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.17034/32638539.v1
Antibiotic resistance, leading to increased treatment failures and substantial economic burdens, poses a significant threat to modern medicine's advancement.
Description
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), because of their primary action mechanism of disrupting bacterial membrane integrity, offer a promising solution to counteract the limitations of conventional antibiotics due to a reduced potential for resistance induction. AMPs, especially positively-charged, alpha-helical, amphipathic polypeptides found in amphibian skin secretions, have various physiological and pharmacological activities.
This research led to the discovery of an antimicrobial peptide, QUB-1460, in the skin secretions of Rana dybowskii.<br><br><i>Thesis embargoed until 31st December 2028</i>
