Hepcidin-20 (human)

Catalog No.: A27937
Antimicrobial Agent
Hepcidin-20 (human) is a histidine-rich, cysteine-enriched peptide with a stable β-sheet structure, functioning as an antimicrobial agent. This peptide exhibits significant antifungal properties and has been shown to inhibit biofilm formation and disrupt bacterial cell metabolism in both polysaccharide intercellular adhesin (PIA)-positive and PIA-negative strains. Its unique mechanism makes it a valuable tool for research into antimicrobial resistance and the development of novel therapeutic strategies.
