<p>This entry represents the cathlecidin antimicrobial C-terminal peptides. The C terminus is cleaved from the cathlecidin precursor, and is approximately 30 amino acids in length with a helical structure. This entry is found in association with <db_xref db="PFAM" dbkey="PF00666"/>. The C terminus peptides possess antimicrobial activity by virtue of their binding to bacterial lipopolysaccharides [<cite idref="PUB00040613"/>][<cite idref="PUB00048248"/>].</p> Cathelicidin, antimicrobial peptide, C-terminal
