Snakin-3 of Mentha longifolia (horsemint) of 114 aas and 1 N-terminal TMS.  The defensive role of Snakin-3, a member of the subfamily III of Snakin/GASA peptides in potatoes has been illucidated (Nahirñak et al. 2024).  Potato Snakin-3 functions as one of the defense Snakin/GASA proteins which share 12 cysteines in conserved positions in the C-terminal region. Most of them were involved in different aspects of plant growth and development, while a small number of these peptides were reported to have antimicrobial activity or participate in abiotic stress tolerance. In potato, 18 Snakin/GASA genes were identified and classified into three groups based on phylogenetic analysis (Nahirñak et al. 2024).
