Addtional InformationThe N-terminal glutamine is believed to be cyclized (i.e., pyroglutamate, XXQ). It contains two disulfide bonds (6-16 and 7-20). A recombinant form is active against clinical multiresistant isolates including MRSA (S. aureus) and extended spectrum ±-lactamases-producing E. coli ( Fan X et al., 2013). Activity and sequence relationship was investigated (Peptides. 2005 Jul;26(7):1113-9). Updated 5/30/2013; Synthesis Type : Ribosomal|shows 8% Inhibition against Human lung carcinoma A549 at 200 ¼g/ml, Antimicrobial assays shows that it could efficiently target clinical multiresistant isolates including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and extended-spectrum ±-lactamase-producing E. Coli.
