[Heuchera sanginea antifungal peptide-1] Hs-AFP1 is an antifungal plant defensin from Heuchera sanginea (Osborn et al, 1995). De Lucca et al (1999) have reported that the peptide binds strongly to chitin, mannan, galactocerebrosides, and sphingomyelin. The peptide is weakly lethal for germinated but not for non-germinated conidia of Aspergillus. flavus. Non-germinated and germinated conidia of Fusarium moniliforme are susceptible to this peptide.
