Abstract  

Cecropin is a kind of heat-durable and broad-spectrum antibacterial polypeptides which has strong effect against bacteria, fungi, virus and some pathogenic microorganisms. Today Cecropin has been widely applied into plant genetic engineering,antiviral study, and inhibiting tumor cell proliferation. In this paper, we review its Structure-function relationship, antibacterial mechanism, and the application on transgenic plants for bacterium resistance. Expression of Cecropin in plants has a great application potential in bacterium resistance. Deep analyses and research of molecular structure and action mechanism can promote the transgenic plants antibacterial research.
