Q4GWV4go to UniProt
Antibacterial peptide mostly active against Gram-positive bacteria (M.lysodeikticus, S.aureus, and the marine bacteria, B.stationis, and M.maritypicum) (PubMed:16246846). It acts by selectively inhibiting peptidoglycan biosynthesis through complex formation with the cell wall precursor lipid II (1:1 molar ratio) thus inhibiting cell wall synthesis (PubMed:20605792). It does not disrupt cell membranes (PubMed:20605792). Is ... [show more]go to UniProt
