Selectively targeted antimicrobial peptides and the use thereof |
摘要 |
The present invention relates to targeting peptides capable of specifically binding to microbial organisms (e.g., P. aeruginosa or S. mutans), antimicrobial peptides having antimicrobial activities, and specifically/selectively targeted antimicrobial peptides (STAMPs). In addition, the present invention provides methods of selectively killing or inhibiting microbial organisms by using the peptides or compositions provided by the present invention. |

1. A method of selectively killing a Streptococcus mutans, said method comprising contacting said S. mutans with an amount of a construct effective to kill an S. mutans, wherein said construct comprises a targeting peptide that binds Streptococcus mutans, the amino acid sequence of said peptide consisting of the sequence TFFRLFNRSFTQALGK (SEQ ID NO:2) attached to a an antimicrobial peptide. |
