Molecular Cloning and Functional Analysis of Lumbricin in Urechis unicinctus

Simple Summary Lumbricin is a well-known proline-rich antimicrobial peptide primarily characterized in terrestrial clitellates, with no prior reports in marine invertebrates. Here, we identified a novel lumbricin homolog from the marine benthic worm Urechis unicinctus. The deduced 67-amino-acid U. unicinctus lumbricin...
