Addtional InformationSynthesis Type : Ribosomal|Inhibition of the cytopathic effects of HIV infection; N-SFTI-1-C with Lys5 substituted with N-(4-aminobutyl)-glycine residue; You can rotate, zoom, and view the 3D structure here in the PDB . Met7 was found to be oxidized to Met sulfoxide by methionine sulfoxide reductase (MsrA; EC 1.8.4.6). Will this oxidation play a role in repair oxidative damage? This peptide showed an effect on viruses such as HIV. Updated 2/2014.
