RT "An amphibian host defense peptide is virucidal for human H1 hemagglutinin-
RT bearing influenza viruses.";
RL Immunity 46:587-595(2017).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Amphibian peptide that shows viricidal activity against human
CC H1N1 influenza A virus. It specifically targets the conserved stalk
CC region of H1 hemagglutinin, and acts by actively destroying influenza
CC virions. It shows a reduced activity on human H3N2 influenza A virus
CC and no activity against other viruses (HIV, SIV, HSV-II, hepatitis C,
CC Ebola, Zika, and Dengue viruses). In vivo, the peptide also protects
CC mice infected with mouse-adapted influenza virus from lethal influenza
CC infection. The peptide synthesized in D-amino acids is inactive.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28423338}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28423338}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the skin glands.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:28423338}.
CC -!- PHARMACEUTICAL: Could contribute to first-line antiviral treatments
CC during outbreaks of flu, particularly as host defense peptides are less
CC prone to resistance than conventional drug therapies.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:28423338}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The name urumin is given by authors from the word
CC 'urumi', which is a deadly whip sword that originates from the same
CC geographical region as H.bahuvistara. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:28423338}.
