The potential of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) as an effective therapeutic alternative to classic and current antibiotics has encouraged studies to understand how they interact with the bacterial membrane. Here we describe how to detect, by circular dichroism (CD), the secondary structures of two antimicrobial peptides, magainin 2 and cecropin A, in the presence of E. coli bacterial cells.
抗菌肽(AMPs)作为经典抗生素和现有抗生素的有效治疗替代物的潜力,促使人们开展研究以了解它们如何与细菌膜相互作用。在此,我们描述了如何通过圆二色性(CD)检测两种抗菌肽——蛙皮素2和天蚕素A在大肠杆菌细胞存在时的二级结构。
