Abstract

The cationic, alpha-helical frog skin antimicrobial peptide B2RP (brevinin-2-related peptide) shows sequence similarity to antimicrobial peptides belonging to the brevinin-2 family, but lacks the C-terminal cyclic heptapeptide domain (Cys-Lys-Xaa (4)-Cys). Synthetic B2RP produced a significant (p Lys enhanced the insulin-releasing potency (137% of basal rate at a concentration of 0.3 muM; p
