Discovery and Characterization of an Atypical Crustin Antimicrobial Peptide from <i>Pollicipes pollicipes</i>
Crustins are a family of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) that play a pivotal role in the innate immune system of crustaceans. The discovery of novel AMPs from natural sources is crucial for expanding our current database of these peptides. Here, we identified and characterized a novel member of the cr...
