Le Canada subit une pression croissante de ses citoyen·ne·s et ses groupes écologistes pour équilibrer la protection de l’environnement avec l’exploitation du territoire. Par exemple, on ne peut plus modifier les habitats essentiels d’espèces en péril au Canada, comme c’est le cas pour la rainette faux-grillon de l’Ouest.

Antimicrobial peptides from Rana [Lithobates] catesbeiana: Gene structure and bioinformatic identification of novel forms from tadpoles

| Nature Verified
Abstract Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) exhibit broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, and have promise as new therapeutic agents. While the adult North American bullfrog (Rana [Lithobates] catesbeiana) is a prolific source of high-potency AMPs, the aquatic tadpole represents a relatively untapped source for new AMP discovery. The recent publication of the bullfrog genome and transcriptomic resources provides an opportune bridge between known AMPs and bioinformatics-based AMP discovery.
