英文摘要Bacterial resistance to drugs is a global problem requiring the urgent development of new antibiotics. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are excellent candidates for the design of novel antibiotics to combat microbial resistance. In this research, we identified four new peptides (U-VVTX-Vp1a, U-VVTX-Vp1b, U-VVTX-Vp2a, and UVVTX-Vp2b, respectively) from the venom of Vespa velutina, and tested their antimicrobial, antioxidant, and hemolytic effects. All four peptides showed scavenging ability against DPPH, ABTS+, and center dot OH free radicals. Of note, Vp1b strongly inhibited the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria at concentrations of 60 and 120 mu M. Due to their low hemolytic activity, all four peptides could be utilized in the development of new antioxidants and as candidates for the design of novel antimicrobial agents.
