INTRODUCTION
Functional peptides arepolypeptides having 12–50 amino acids
sequence and also known as anti-microbial peptides.
Part of natural immunity in plants
First line of defense against phytopathogens (Tang et al., 2018;
Zaslof, 2002)
Positively charged and are diverse group of plant proteins
Functional Peptidesipathic structure
Signifcantly affect plant growth and development (Berrocal-Lobo
et al., 2002; de Zélicourt et al., 2007; Fernandez et al., 1972).

1939- Dubos extracted an anti microbial agent Bacillus from soil
against Pneumococci
1940- Named this extract as Gramicidin
1942- First plant originated Functional Peptides was
isolated by Balls et al., from wheat
Named Purothionin and found effective against
fungi and bacteria
1970- Okada and Yoshizumi isolated
Hordothionin from endosperm of barley

1. THIONIS
Balls etal. (1942) identified thionins
for the first time in cereals and classified
as plant toxins due to their toxic effect
towards microbes.
Thionins consist of 45-48 amino acids,
6 or 8 cysteine and 3 or 4 disulfde bonds
(Stec 2006).
Around 100 individual thionin
sequences have been identified in more
than 15 different plant species
Hydrophobic
Mostly Cationic
Anti fungal and Antibacterial

SUPPORTIVE ARTICLE
When flowersare inoculated with F. graminearum, the Thi2.4 protein had an
antifungal effect on F. graminearum.
They purified the Thi2.4 protein, conjugated it with glutathione-S-transferase
(GST) . Total protein from F. graminearum was applied to GST-Thi2.4 and the
fungal fruit body lectin (FFBL) of F. graminearum was identified as a Thi2.4-
interacting protein.
By contrast, FFBL-induced host cell death was effectively suppressed in
transgenic plants that over expressed Thi2.4.
Asano et al., 2013

Thi2.4 protein waspresent in flowers
and flower buds, but not leaves or
inflorescence stems.
The molecular mass of the Thi2.4
protein was about 15 kD.

2. DEFENSIN
•In 1990,Mendez et al. isolated from
barley and wheat and named as Defensin.
•Small, cystine rich Functional peptides
ranging from 45-54 amino acids.
•Defensins consist of 3-5 disulfide bonds.
•Abundantly present in the stomatal and
peripheral cells.
• Expression of plant defensins are also
induced by abiotic stress and signalling
molecules.

and branching of

Non- morphogenic
plant defensins
Inhibit only hyphal
growth
24.
MODE OF ACTIONOF DEFENSIN
Khan et al., 2019
The membrane permeabilization
and ion leakage from the membrane
occurs due to the interaction of
serine residue with glycosyl part of
the fungal cell membrane (de Paula
et al. 2011).
Antifungal activity of NAD1
involves in the membrane
permeabilization of hyphae of the
pathogen Fusarium oxysporum.
Dimer formation was observed in
NaD1 defensin.

5. KNOTTIN typepeptides
‑
• Nguyen et al. (1990) isolated it from
Mirabilis jalapa.
• The typical structure of knottins involves
conserved disulfde bonds between
multiple cysteine pairs, forming a cystine
knot.
• Generally, knottin-type peptides are the
smallest in size among plant Functional
Peptidess.
• Promote resistance to biotic and abiotic
stresses, stimulating root growth, acting as
signaling molecules, and enhancing
symbiotic interactions
OTHER FUNCTIONAL PEPTIDES
PuroindolinesSnakins Cyclopeptides

tryptophan-rich domain

associated peptide snakin-1

(Nahirñak et al., 2012).
•Cyclic proteins of about
28-37 aminoacids.
• Composed of amino
acid residues arranged in
a cyclic ring, usually

BACTERIOCINS
• Ribosomal synthesized
Functionalpeptides.
• Produced by bacteria.
• Kill or inhibit closely
related bacterial strains.
PEPTAIBOLS
• Non ribosomal
synthesized Functional
linear peptides.

• Affect fungi and plant
pathogenic gram positive
bacteria.
SYNTHETIC FUNCTIONAL PEPTIDES
Resistance toFunctional Peptidess by pathogens such as
Pectobacterium carotovorum, Dickeya dadantii (PhoH, PhoP, PhoS
genes)
In vitro testing of the leaf extracts from the plants expressing
cationic peptides shows that the expressed peptides are unstable or
degraded by proteases (Cary et al., 2000; Li et al., 2001).
Lack of the strategies needed to optimize expression and stability
of expressed peptides in transgenic plants.
High extraction cost
DRAWBACKS
52.
•The best strategyfor providing enhanced and broad-spectrum resistance
using cationic peptides is the expression of different molecules at different
stages of disease development.
•Combinations of potential peptides may be a successful strategy for
generating broad-spectrum disease resistance, including resistance against
viruses in plants.
•Strategies for a regulated and/or inducible, and tissue-specific expression of
peptides, may prove to be effective for better performance in the greenhouse
as well as in the field
•Successful applications of a transgenic approach using these peptides to
control plant diseases, particularly viruses, will likely help eradicate certain
plant diseases, reduce the environmental impact of intensive agricultural
practices.
