Melittin free acid
Catalog No. A32622

Melittin free acid is a 26-amino-acid polypeptide and a potent activator of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) with significant antifungal activity. It demonstrates broad-spectrum antifungal efficacy, displaying minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values between 0.4-60 μM. Melittin free acid exerts its biological effects by promoting fungal cell apoptosis, inhibiting (1,3)-β-D-glucan synthase, and engaging in various other cellular pathways, making it a valuable reagent for research in antifungal mechanisms and therapeutic applications.
