Abaecin

Abaecin represents antimicrobial peptides produced by bees. These peptides have strong antimicrobial and some anti-fungal activity and has homology to abaecin which is the largest proline-rich antimicrobial peptide isolated from European bumblebee Bombus pascuorum [PMID: 9219367].

The below sequences were used to create Abaecin sequence signatures:
