A novel synthetic peptide from a tomato defensin exhibits antibacterial activities against Helicobacter pylori

Defensins are a class of cysteine‐rich proteins, which exert broad spectrum antimicrobial activity. In this work, we used a bioinformatic approach to identify putative defensins in the tomato genome. Fifteen proteins had a mature peptide that includes the well‐conserved tetradisulfide array. We sele...

description Defensins are a class of cysteine‐rich proteins, which exert broad spectrum antimicrobial activity. In this work, we used a bioinformatic approach to identify putative defensins in the tomato genome. Fifteen proteins had a mature peptide that includes the well‐conserved tetradisulfide array. We selected a representative member of the tomato defensin family; we chemically synthesized its γ‐motif and tested its antimicrobial activity. Here, we demonstrate that the synthetic peptide exhibits potent antibacterial activity against Gram‐positive bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus A170, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Listeria monocytogenes, and Gram‐negative bacteria, including Salmonella enterica serovar Paratyphi, Escherichia coli, and Helicobacter pylori. In addition, the synthetic peptide shows minimal (
