[fibrinogen(398-413); fibrinogen-gamma(398-413)] This peptide, YSLKKTSMKIIPFTRL, derived from fibrinogen (fibrinogen-gamma subunit), has been identified by Bishop et al (2015) in the plasma of the American alligator, Alligator mississippiensis. It shows strong antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli and is moderately effective against Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and less active against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus cereus.
