Primary Information
PPepDB IDPPepDB_3251
Peptide NameBCH4a
PMID(s)24817604
Plant Source (Scientific Name)Capsicum baccatum
Plant Source (Common Name)Yellow chili
Plant FamilySolanaceae
Peptide FamilyVicilin
Peptide FunctionAntifungal, Alpha-amylase-inhibitor
Peptide Function DescriptionShows 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 AgainstSaccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Kluyveromyces marxiannus, C. maculatus larval-amylase, Human salivary-amylase
