  • In this study we compared the sensitivity of P. aeruginosa and B. cepacia strains to protegrin PG-1 with the ability of the intact bacteria and key components of their outer membranes (LPS and lipid A) to bind this peptide.

  • To acquire an equivalent density of surface-bound PG-1 molecules, B. cepacia needed exposure to much higher concentrations of PG-1 than P. aeruginosa . Thus, it is a reasonable inference that the relative resistance of B. cepacia to PG-1 is a consequence of the smaller number of protegrin molecules bound per unit area of bacterial surface.
