Effect of melittin on influenza-infected chicken embryos
Original language description
Antimicrobial peptides are peptides isolated from a wide range of organisms that exert microbicidal activity against a wide spectrum of targets, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. These peptides are aimed directly on the phospholipid bilayer and do not target on the cellular or metabolic activities of the cells as antibiotics and other drugs do. But thanks to many vital proteins associated with the membrane, these peptides can also influence these structures and therefore facilitate andaccelerate their death. Melittin is a well-characterized pore-forming lytic amphiphilic peptide (consisting of 26 amino acids) found in bee venom. The amphiphilic property of this peptide makes it water-soluble and yet it spontaneously associates with natural and artificial membranes. This integration leads to the distortion and permeabilization of the membrane. In this study melittin has been utilized to study antiviral properties against influenza A virus. Melittin was used in the mixt
