The antimicrobial molecules are an abundant group of molecules that are amply distributed in nature, from plants and insects to vertebrate animals, including humans. They are an essential component of the innate immune system for host defence against pathogenic agents of different types. They are often the products of individual genes and circulating cells. In this thesis, based on a bioinformatic analysis, we identified three peptides, members to the family of cathelicidins and to the class of peptides rich in proline (PR-AMPs), that may be generally be considered as the first effectors of the interior defense, acting as natural antibiotics (Scocchi et al., 2011; Reddy et al., 2004). We in…
