摘要
An array of analogues of the cationic antimicrobial peptide drosocin was synthesized containing substitutions of Tyr6 and Ser7 in order to increase the proteolytic stability. Stabilizing the N-terminus with unnatural amino acids increased the serum stability of analogues by almost a factor 30 over an 8 h period. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
