Clavanins, a-hdical antimicrobial peptides isolated from a mixed tunicate population of Styela clam hemocytes. Qavanin A, VPQELGKIIH HVGNFVHGFS HVFa, and the davanins B-E are 23-peptide antibiotics containing 18 identical residues... 

Antimicrobial peptides, isolated from the dorsal glands of Australian tree frogs, have been studied using multinuclear solid state NMR. Specifically N-labelled peptides were studied using solid state NMR to determine their structure and orientation in model lipid bilayers. The effect of these peptides on phospholipid membranes was determined by and P solid state NMR...

Generally, most of the nonprotein amino acids containing aryl or functionalized aryl side chains are part of nonribosomal peptides isolated from hacteria, fungi, and sponges. These peptides exhibit interesting biological activities that include antimicrobial, antitumor, antifungal, and other inhibitory activities. Table 3 describes many of these types of amino acids. 

The arsenal of plant defense peptides contains members capable of binding carbohydrate residues, namely /31-4 linked A -acetyl glucosamine residues that form the biopolymer chitin. The actual mode of action remains unclear. Antifungal and antimicrobial activity has been shown in vitro. For example Ac-AMP2 is a small disulfide-rich chitin-binding peptide isolated from the seeds of Amaranthus caudatus with antimicrobial activity. It differs from Ac-AMP 1 by one additional arginine residue at the C-terminus. The structure was determined by NMR and contains a cystine knot motif. Ac-AMP2 displays a so-called hevein domain partly...
