Abstract

The activity of neuropeptide Y (NPY) against Candida albicans, which was revealed to be fungicidal, was enhanced significantly by the truncation of amino acid residues at the N terminus. The most active peptides (MICs, approximately 1 microM) were about 10-fold more potent than the intact NPY (MIC, approximately 10 microM). The enhancement was weakened by the replacement of the N terminus by negatively charged residues and/or acylation of the alpha-amino group. These results suggest that only the alpha-helical region of NPY is necessary for the antimicrobial activity and that the net charge of the peptide is important for the activity.

摘要

神经肽Y(NPY)对白色念珠菌具有杀菌活性,N端氨基酸残基的截短可显著增强该活性。活性最强的肽(最小抑菌浓度约为1微摩尔/升)的效力比完整的NPY(最小抑菌浓度约为10微摩尔/升)高约10倍。用带负电荷的残基取代N端和/或α-氨基的酰化会削弱这种增强作用。这些结果表明,NPY的抗菌活性仅需要其α-螺旋区域,并且肽的净电荷对活性很重要。
