In Vitro Indolicidin is comprised of 13 amino acids, 5 of which are tryptophan residues, and the carboxylterminal arginine is carboxamidated. Indolicidin has the highest tryptophan content of any known protein. The multiple tryptophan residues may play an important role in the function of this unique antibiotic peptide. Indolicidin is a tridecapeptide amide which possesses in vitro bactericidal activities comparable with the most active of the defensin or bactenecin peptides[1]. Indolicidin binds purified surface lipopolysaccharide with high affinity and permeabilized the outer membrane of Escherichia coli to the small hydrophobic molecule 1-N-phenylnapthylamine (Mr 200), results consistent with indolicidin crossing the outer membrane via the self-promoted uptake pathway. The methyl esterification of indolicidin's carboxyl terminus increases its activity for Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. In Gram-negative bacteria this is associated with an increased binding to lipopolysaccharide and increased permeabilization of the outer membrane. The cytoplasmic membrane is the site of action of indolicidin as assayed in Escherichia coli by the unmasking of cytoplasmic beta-galactosidase due to membrane permeabilization[2].
Cell Assay The time course and dose dependence of indolicidin bactericidal activity are determined using Escherichia coli ML35 and Staphylococcus aureus 502A as test organisms. The assays are performed in 10 mM sodium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, at 37°C. A 50 μg sample of indolicidin is dissolved in 50 pl of 0.1 M pyridine acetate, pH 6.5, and incubated with 5 μg of chymotrypsin for 15 h at 37°C. Digestion of the sample is confirmed by the disappearance of the indolicidin band on acid-urea PAGE. Following lyophilization, untreated and digested samples are tested for antibacterial activity in a agar diffusion assay against Escherichia coli using concentrations of peptide ranging from 10 to 300 μg/mL[1].
