  • To resolve these seemingly discrepant results, it is important to recall that in SPR assays, the sensor chips were constantly bathed with a fixed protegrin concentration ranging from 1-20 μM and that in radial diffusion assays, the wells received a fixed initial amount of protegrin (50 ng).

  • 4. This is also consistent with the suggestion, made in a recent report showing that cystic fibrosis isolates of P. aeruginosa had lipid A isoforms derivatized with aminoarabinose (or palmitate), that these structural modifications could enhance resistance to cationic antimicrobial peptides [ 61 ] . Although the acyl chains of lipid A might also provide alternative binding sites for protegrin, the orientation of lipid A on the HPA sensor chip ("butter-side down") probably removes them from consideration, at least under our study conditions.

  • 4indicate that at saturation (20 μM), lipid A from B. cepacia bound almost exactly one-half as many protegrin molecules as lipid A from P. aeruginosa . How might this be rationalized?

  • Certainly, the striking correlation with the extent of protegrin binding must be one of these.

  • 3suggests that B. cepacia LPS binds protegrin less effectively than the corresponding P. aeruginosa preparation, while the SPR results in Fig.
