Sequence determinants in the cathelicidin LL-37 that promote inflammation via presentation of RNA to scavenger receptors

Cathelicidins such as the human 37-amino acid peptide (LL-37) are peptides that not only potently kill microbes but also trigger inflammation by enabling immune recognition of endogenous nucleic acids. Here, a detailed structure–function analysis of LL-37 was performed to understand the details of t...
