An antimicrobial peptide was purified from fermented skate skin extract using the solid-phase extraction and separation on HPLC reversed-phase chromatography. Amino acid sequence of the purified peptide (Peak A) having an antimicrobial activity revealed the presence of many cationic residues of the total 28 amino acids. Its molecular mass was found to be 3059
Da. This result was in excellent agreement with the theoretical molecular mass calculated from the amino acid sequence. The synthetic kenojeinin I had inhibitory effects on
B. subtilis (MIC, 12
μg/ml),
E. coli (28
μg/ml), and
S. cerevisiae (12
μg/ml). These results indicate that fermented skate skin is potentially antimicrobial.
