| Primary Information |
| PPepDB ID | PPepDB_3251 |
| Peptide Name | BCH4a |
| PMID(s) | 24817604 |
| Plant Source (Scientific Name) | Capsicum baccatum |
| Plant Source (Common Name) | Yellow chili |
| Plant Family | Solanaceae |
| Peptide Family | Vicilin |
| Peptide Function | Antifungal, Alpha-amylase-inhibitor |
| Peptide Function Description | Shows antimicrobial activity and inhibitory effects against ±-amylase. The H4 fraction exhibited strong antifungal activity and also promoted morphological changes in yeast. All fractions, including H4, inhibited mammalian ±-amylase activity but only the H4 fraction was able to inhibit C. maculatus ±-amylase activity. Act as defenses against pathogens and insects in plants. |
| Activity Against | Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Kluyveromyces marxiannus, C. maculatus larval-amylase, Human salivary-amylase |
