ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to antimicrobial cathelicidin polypeptides related to a 38 amino acid peptide having SEQ ID NO:4. The invention provides for polypeptides having broad spectrum antimicrobial activity, nucleic acids and expression vectors encoding such polypeptides, as well as host cells and methods of reducing survival of a microbe. In addition, the invention also provides compositions, as well as articles of manufacture, that comprise a broad spectrum antimicrobial polypeptide.
