Proline 31-38 melittin Apis mellifera 0-8 19417147-5 2009 Melittin is synthesized as promelittin, containing a 22 amino acid NH(2)-terminal prodomain rich in the amino acids proline and alanine. Proline 116-123 melittin Apis mellifera 0-8 10961508-0 2000 A Pro --> Ala substitution in melittin affects self-association, membrane binding and pore-formation kinetics due to changes in structural and electrostatic properties Melittin, the main component of bee venom of Apis mellifera, contains a proline at position 14, which is highly conserved in related peptides of various bee venoms. Proline 243-250 melittin Apis mellifera 33-41 10961508-1 2000 To investigate the structural and functional role of Pro14 a melittin analogue was studied where proline is substituted by an alanine residue (P14A). Proline 97-104 melittin Apis mellifera 61-69 10961508-7 2000 The different features of P14A in aggregation, binding and efflux compared to melittin are mainly ascribable directly to structural changes caused by the proline --> alanine substitution. Proline 154-161 melittin Apis mellifera 78-86 10961508-9 2000 It is suggested that the presence of proline in melittin is not only of structural importance but also influences indirectly the electrostatic properties of the native peptide. Proline 37-44 melittin Apis mellifera 48-56
