## Sixteen caerulein-type peptides have been isolated from the skin secretions of the Australian Blue Mountains tree frog Litoria citropa. There are four groups of these peptides. The first is based on the structure of the known neuropeptide caerulein [pEQDY(SO 3 )TGWMDF-NH 2 ], now renamed caerul
## Abstract Maculatin 1.1 (Mac) is a cationic antibacterial peptide isolated from the dorsal glands of the tree frog, __Litoria genimaculata__, and has a sequence of GLFGVLAKVAAHVVPAIAEHFโNH~2~. A short peptide lacking the __N__โterminal two residues of Mac was reported to have no activity. To inve
