Storage: -15 °C
Description of Cecropin A (1-8)-Melittin (1-18) amide
This is a Cecropin A (CA) –melittin (M) hybrid peptide, named CA(1-8)M(1-18)-NH2. It consists of Cecropin A amino acid residues 1-8 and melittin amino acid residues 1-18. Its bactericidal activity in animals raises the potential for this peptide to be a good clinical remedy against the increasing threat of a widespread pan-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. A shorter version of this hybrid peptide, CA(1-7)M(2-9), cat# 63890, is equally effective in animal study.
