The Central PXXP Motif Is Crucial for PMAP-23 Translocation across the Lipid Bilayer
PMAP-23, a cathelicidin-derived host defense peptide, does not cause severe membrane permeabilization, but exerts strong and broad-spectrum bactericidal activity. We have previously shown that it forms an amphipathic α-helical structure with a central hinge induced by the PXXP motif, which is implic...
