Temporin A is an alpha-helical antimicrobial peptide derived from the skin of the European common frog, Rana temporaria. This peptide exhibits broad-spectrum activity against Gram-positive bacteria by disrupting microbial cell membranes, while demonstrating non-toxicity to erythrocytes at effective antimicrobial concentrations. Additionally, Temporin A possesses antifungal properties, notably against Candida albicans, making it a valuable reagent for research in antimicrobial peptide function and potential therapeutic applications.
