[0002] Melittin is the main component of bee venom that exerts pharmacological and biological activities, and has antibacterial, antiviral, antiparasitic, and antitumor effects. Studies have shown that melittin has the advantages of good thermal stability, low immunogenicity, low allergic reaction, and better bactericidal efficiency than conventional antibiotics, and has great potential medicinal value. However, due to its strong hemolytic property, the current clinical application of melittin is greatly limited.

It plays a key role in regulating the biological complexity of eukaryotic organisms and has become one of the hot topics in current chemical and biological research. Glycosylation of peptide molecules can change the physical and pharmacological properties of the original peptide, which is expected to improve the therapeutic effect of peptide drugs and improve the defects of peptide drugs in clinical use.

[0235] Test Example 1: Antibacterial Activity Test

[0236] Preparation of antimicrobial drug stock solution: Prepare the target compound with physiological saline to 1024 μg / ml for later use.

[0237] Dilution of antibiotics: dilute the stock solution of antibiotics in multiples with MH broth in a 96-well plate (the concentration range of the drug-containing broth series should cover the sensitive and resistant breakpoints of the drug, as well as the MIC range of the quality control bacteria).

[0238] Inoculation: First prepare a 0.5 McFarland turbidity bacterial suspension, then dilute the suspension 1:100 (concentration of about 10 6 CFU / ml), and 100 μl of the diluted bacterial suspension was added to the above-mentioned 96-well plate containing the drug broth. Mix well, and the concentration of the antibiotic is diluted 1:2. The final bacterial solution density is about 5×10 6 CFU / ml.

[0239] Set up control wells: Growth control: 100 μl of broth without antibiotics and 100 ul of diluted bacterial solution; Negative control: 200 μl of broth with only antibiotics added and 200 μl of broth without antibiotics.

[0240] Purity check of inoculum: Take an inoculation loop and streak the diluted bacterial solution onto a blood agar plate, then place the plate in a constant temperature incubator at 37°C to check the purity of the inoculum.

[0241] Incubation: The inoculated 96-well plate containing the bacterial-drug mixture was placed in a constant temperature incubator at 37°C for 16 to 20 hours.

[0242] Check the control wells: first observe the bacterial purity and test the bacterial growth on the plate to determine whether it is contaminated. Then observe the bacterial growth in the growth control tube (it should grow). The negative control tube should have no sterile growth; check whether the MIC value of the quality control strain is within the corresponding quality control range.

[0243] Interpretation of results: The highest drug dilution in the test tube or well with no visible bacterial growth is the endpoint well, and its drug concentration is the MIC value. According to the measured MIC value, refer to the CISI document MIC interpretation standard to determine whether the final result is resistant (R), sensitive (S) or intermediate (I).

[0244] The results are shown in Table 1, and it is found that some of the melittin glycopeptides of the present invention can enhance the antibacterial activity of melittin, among which the MIC values ​​of MT-1a, MT-3a, and MT-2c against Puzza Streptococcus are reduced by one time; the MIC values ​​of MT-2d and MT-2h against E. coli are reduced by one time. This indicates that the antibacterial activity of these melittin glycopeptides is significantly improved compared with melittin.
