초록

강한 항진균 활성을 나타내며, 낮은 적혈구 용혈활성을 갖는 새로운 합성 펩티드를 얻기 위하여 cecropin A(1-8)-magainin 2(1-12) 및 이들의 유사체들을 설계하고 이들을 고상법에 의하여 합성하였다. 합성 펩티드의 항진균 활성은 Trichosporon beigelii에 대한 성장억제능에 의하여 측정하였으며, 세포독성은 인간의 적혈구 세포에 대한 용혈활성에 의하여 측정하였다. 펩티드의 양쪽 친매성의 증가는 항진균활성보다는 적혈구 용혈황성에 큰 영향을 미쳤다. Cecropin A(1-8)-magainin 2(1-12)의 12번 아미노산이 Lys을 Ala으로 치환시킨 유사체 펩티드(A2)는 가장 강한 항진균활성(minimum inhibitory concentration : 2.5.$\mu$g/ml)을 나타내며 비교적 낮은 적혈구 용혈활성(200.$\mu$g/ml의 펩티드 농도에서 0.5% hemolysis를 나타냄)을 나타내었다. 따라서 A2의 펩티드는 세포독성을 갖지 않으며 강한 항진균 활성을 가지는 모델로서 유용하게 사용될 것이다.

In order to design a novel synthetic peptide with improved fungicidal activity but low hemolytic activity, a hybrid peptide, cecropin A(l-8)-magainin 2(1-12), and its analogue peptides were synthesized by the solid phase method. Antifungal and hemolytic activities of the synthetic peptides were assessed by the growth inhibition against Trichosporon beigelii and the cell membrane lysis against human red hlood cells, respectively. Analogue 2 in which Lys at position 12 in cecropin A(1-8)-magainin 2(1-12) was substituted with Ala showed most potent antifungal activity (MIC: 2.5.$\mu$g/ml) with minimal hemolytic activity (0.5% hemolysis at the (200.$\mu$g/ml peptide). This peptide (A2), therefore, could be useful as a model for further designing potent antifungal peptides without cytotoxicity.
