Plectasin Plectasin is an antibiotic found by Novozymes in the Pezizalean fungus ''Pseudoplectania nigrella''. Plectasin belongs to the antimicrobial peptide class called Defensins, which is also present in invertebrates such as flies and mussels. Pre-clinical tests in mice have shown promising results in that multiresistant bacteria have problems mutating resistance against plectasin,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.drugdevelopment-technology.com/projects/plectasin/ )〕 which acts by directly binding the bacterial cell-wall precursor Lipid II. At the end of 2008, Novozymes signed a global licensing agreement with Sanofi-Aventis for the further development and marketing of NZ2114, a derivative of plectasin, as a treatment for gram-positive bacterial infections, e.g. Streptococcus and Staphylococcus which are resistant to all existing antibiotics.〔 ==References==
