Both longicin and longicin P4 are active against E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, and S. typhimurium. Active against equine parasite B. equi and canine B. gibsoni. Longicin mature peptide corresponds to residues 37 to 73 of the precursor protein. Longicin P4 corresponds to 53-73 (i.e., C-terminal fragment). Other inactive peptides include longicin P1 (residues 23-37), longicin P2 (residues 33-45), and longicin P3 (42-57).
