Mutation-driven evolution of antibacterial function in an ancestral antifungal scaffold: Significance for peptide engineering

Mutation-driven evolution of novel function on an old gene has been documented in many development- and adaptive immunity-related genes but is poorly understood in immune effector molecules. Drosomycin-type antifungal peptides (DTAFPs) are a family of defensin-type effectors found in plants and ecdy...
