Ascaphin

Ascaphin family of antibacterial peptides are secreted from the frog Ascaphus truei. This family of peptide exhibit no structural similarity with other antimicrobial peptides from frogs skin [PMID: 15207717].

The below sequences were used to create Ascaphin sequence signatures:

>CAMPSQ833

>CAMPSQ4332
GFRDVLKGAAKAFVKTVAGHIAN
>CAMPSQ831
GFRDVLKGAAKAFVKTVAGHIANI
>CAMPSQ3118
