Mechanistic Insights into Human Cathelicidin LL-37-Induced Activation of a Broadly Conserved Bacterial Signaling System

Samuel A. Adeleye, Abraham Fikru Mechesso, Arpita Mukherjee…·Srujana Samhita Yadavalli

This study shows human antimicrobial peptides like LL-37 activate bacterial PhoQ-PhoP signaling independently of their bactericidal effects, revealing a new mechanism of bacterial response to host peptides.
