Magainin 2
Catalog No. A33197

Magainin 2 is an antimicrobial peptide (AMP) derived from the skin of the African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis. This peptide exhibits potent antibiotic activity against a wide range of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, as well as efficacy against protozoan pathogens. Magainin 2 induces cytotoxicity through preferential interactions with anionic phospholipids in bacterial cell membranes, making it a valuable tool for research in antimicrobial mechanisms and peptide-based therapeutics.
