英文摘要 | Antimicrobial peptide diversity has been found in some amphibians. The diversity of antimicrobial peptides may have resulted from the diversity of microorganisms encountered by amphibians. Peptidomics and genomics analyses were used to study antimicrobial peptide diversity in the skin secretions of the torrent frog, Amolops jingdongensis. Thirty-one antimicrobial peptides belonging to nine groups were identified in the skin secretions of this frog. Among them, there are two novel antimicrobial groups (jingdongin-1 and -2) with unique structural motifs. The other seven groups belong to known antimicrobial peptide families, namely brevinin-1, brevinin-2, odorranain-F, esculentin-2, temporin, amolopin-3, and ranacyclin. Combined with previous reports, more than 13 antimicrobial peptide groups have been identified from the genus Amolops. Most of these antimicrobial peptide groups are also found in amphibians belonging to the genus Rana or Odorrana which suggests a possible evolutionary connection among Amolops, Rana, and Odorrana. Two novel antimicrobial groups (jingdongin-1 and -2) were synthesized and their antimicrobial activities were assayed. Some of them showed strong antimicrobial abilities against microorganisms including Gram-negative and -positive bacteria, and fungi. The extreme diversity of antimicrobial peptides in the Amolops amphibians was demonstrated. In addition, several novel peptide templates were provided for antimicrobial agent design. |
