Synthetic amino acids-derived peptides target Cryptococcus neoformans by inducing cell membrane disruption
Bioorganic Chemistry(2023)
摘要
•Synthetic histidines containing peptides with anticryptococcal activity.•Identification of amphipathic peptides 12e and 16d against Cryptococcus neoformans.•Peptide 16d showed IC50 = 1.36 μg/mL and MIC = 2.46 μg/mL against C. neoformans.•Confocal laser scanning microscopy and electron microscopy studies of 12e and 16d cell membrane disruption of C. neoformans.•Synergisism with known antifungal drug.
