Antibacterial activity of mBjAMP1 and its effects on bacterial structure.

(a) Antibacterial activity of mBjAMP1 against E. coli. (b) Antibacterial activity of mBjAMP1 against V. anguillarum. (c) Antibacterial activity of mBjAMP1 against S. aureus. (d) Antibacterial activity of mBjAMP1 against M.luteus. (e,h) S. aureus and E. coli incubated with PBS and observed by TEM, showing no membrane disruption/cytoplasmic thinning. (f,i) S. aureus and E. coli incubated with mBjAMP1 and observed, showing membrane disruption/cytoplasmic thinning. (g,j) High resolution of the boxes in (f,i).
