| About this Structure
1PG1 is a Single protein structure of sequence from Sus scrofa. Full experimental information is available from OCA. 1PG1 is an arginine and cysteine rich protein, which forms a double stranded anti-parallel β-sheet structure. The single chain forms a membrane-bound dimer, of structure 1ZY6. The structure of 1PG1 is similar to that of some other antimicrobial peptides such as defensins[1]. In one study comparing the susceptibility of Chlamydia trachomatis to 1PG1 and a similar defensin peptide, 1PG1 was shown to be significantly more effective at inactivating the bacteria[2]. The antimicrobial action of this protein is believed to be due to its ability to create pores in bacterial membranes causing ion leakage [3]. This antimicrobial activity has given rise to the idea of using the peptide as a therapeutic for local or systemic infections[4]. The protegrin is synthesized as a ca. 149 amino acid precursor with a cathelin-like domain.
