BIOPEP-UWM: Report
ID | 5500 |
Name | drosomycin |
sequence |
Function: | |||
Possesses antifungal activity and is active against a relatively broad spectrum of filamentous fungi. It inhibits spore germination at high concentrations and at low concentrations delays growth of Hyphae which subsequently exhibit abnormal morphology. | |||
Number of residues | 44 |
Activity code | ab |
Activity : | antibacterial |
