Antimicrobial peptides are a vital component of the innate immune system of all eukaryotic
organisms and many of these peptides have potent antifungal activity. They have potential …

Antimicrobial proteins (AMPs) are widely distributed in nature. In higher eukaryotes, AMPs
provide the host with an important defence mechanism against invading pathogens. AMPs …

Life, as we know it, is water based. Exposure to hydroxonium and hydroxide ions is constant
and ubiquitous, and the evolutionary pressure to respond appropriately to these ions is likely …

The global challenge to prevent fungal spoilage and mycotoxin contamination on food and
feed requires the development of new antifungal strategies. Antimicrobial peptides and …

Three cDNAs encoding the antifungal protein Ag-AFP from the fungus Aspergillus
giganteus, a barley class II chitinase and a barley type I RIP, all regulated by the constitutive …

The Aspergillus giganteus antifungal protein (AFP), encoded by the afp gene, has been
reported to possess in vitro antifungal activity against various economically important fungal …

Abbreviations: ArgRNz Arg Repressor N-terminal domain; dsRBD: double-stranded RNA
binding domain; PH: Pleckstrin homology; KH: K homology; PDI: Protein disulphide …

Antifungal proteins of fungal origin (AFPs) are small, secreted, cationic, and cysteine-rich
proteins. Filamentous fungi encode a wide repertoire of AFPs belonging to different …

The human p100 protein was recently identified as a coactivator of the Epstein-Barr virus
nuclear antigen 2. On the basis of sequence analysis with the hydrophobic cluster analysis …

Coarse-grained protein models with various levels of granularity and degrees of freedom
offer the possibility to explore many phenomena including folding, assembly, and …
