Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are favoured because of their broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties and because they do not easily develop microbial resistance. However, the low yield and difficult extraction processes of AMPs have become bottlenecks in large-scale industrial applications and scientific research. Microbial recombinant production may be the most economical and effective method of obtaining AMPs in large quantities. In this paper, we review the mechanism, summarize the current status of microbial recombinant production, and focus on strategies to improve the yield and activity of AMPs, in order to provide a reference for their large-scale production.
期刊介绍:
Probiotics and Antimicrobial Proteins publishes reviews, original articles, letters and short notes and technical/methodological communications aimed at advancing fundamental knowledge and exploration of the applications of probiotics, natural antimicrobial proteins and their derivatives in biomedical, agricultural, veterinary, food, and cosmetic products. The Journal welcomes fundamental research articles and reports on applications of these microorganisms and substances, and encourages structural studies and studies that correlate the structure and functional properties of antimicrobial proteins.
