Abstract
⺠A proline-rich peptide has been isolated from swine saliva possessing antifungal activity. ⺠It is not cytoxocic towards human control cells. ⺠It does not show membrane damaging effects, but it is internalized within yeast cells. ⺠Its structural chracteristcs suggest that this peptide may act through the interaction with an intracellular target.
