Picturins and Pictuseptins, two novel antimicrobial peptide families from the skin secretions of the Chachi treefrog, Boana picturata

The Imbabura treefrog (Boana picturata) is an underexplored source of bioactive peptides. The combination of molecular cloning and mass spectrometry allowed us to identify three new peptide families, named "Picturins" (PTR), "Pictuseptins" (PTS), and "Boanins" (BNS). PT...
