The invention discloses a deuterated
antibacterial peptide as well as a composition and application thereof, and belongs to the field of biological medicines. By introducing deuterated 2-
aminobutyric acid to form an annular structure and combining deuterated modification, the affinity of the
antibacterial peptide to a bacterial membrane is greatly improved compared with that of traditional drugs (
polymyxin B and D50), and the selectivity of the
antibacterial peptide to a mammalian membrane is 884 times or above higher than that of a control; the
minimum inhibitory concentration to
gram-negative
bacteria in vitro is as low as 0.015 mu g / mL, which is increased by 67 times compared with
polymyxin B, is increased by 33-67 times compared with D50 control
peptide, and is increased by about 17 times compared with non-deuterated antibacterial
peptide 5, so that extremely-low-concentration efficient bacteriostasis is realized; the
toxicity to
human kidney cells is extremely low, and the
biological safety is better. In a plurality of infection models, the
treatment effect of the compound is obviously better than that of the three
control substances, and the compound can be used for preparing anti-infection drugs, provides a new scheme of high efficiency and
low toxicity for clinical anti-infection treatment, and is suitable for prevention and treatment of a plurality of infections.
