Hirudomacin: a Protein with Dual Effects of Direct Bacterial Inhibition and Regulation of Innate Immunity

Abstract

In today's world, bacterial drug resistance is becoming increasingly serious, and natural antibacterial proteins are attracting attention because of advantages such as their diverse and complex antibacterial modes, lack of residue, and harder-to-develop drug resistance. Notably, there are few antibacterial proteins with multiple effects such as direct antibacterial and innate immunity enhancement at the same time.
