Lessons from a Single Amino Acid Substitution: Anticancerand Antibacterial Properties of Two PhospholipaseA2-Derived Peptides

The membrane-active nature of phospholipase A2-derived peptides makes them potentialcandidates for antineoplastic and antibacterial therapies. Two short 13-mer C-terminal fragmentstaken from snake venom Lys49-PLA2toxins (p-AppK and p-Acl), differing by a leucine/phenylalaninesubstitution, were synth...
