摘要

Novel microbial peptides called clavaspirins are of the formula (1): X'1X2B'3X4X5U6U7X8X9B10X'11X12U13B14X15X16B*17B18X19U20X21X'22X23, including the salts, esters, amides and acylated forms thereof, wherein X is a hydrophobic amino acid residue or modified form thereof; X' is a small or a hydrophobic amino acid residue or a modified form thereof; B is a basic amino acid residue or modified form thereof; B' is basic or a polar/large amino acid residue or modified form thereof; B* is a basic or a hydrophobic amino acid residue or a modified form thereof; and U is a small amino acid residue or modified form thereof.
