Histatin-3 TFA
Description
Histatin-3 TFA is a peptide composed of 32 amino acids with potent antibacterial properties. Histatin-3 TFA serves as a substrate for proprotein convertase 1 (PC1), being cleaved by this endoprotease primarily at the C-terminal side of a single Arg25 residue (HRGYR reduces SN). Histatin-3 TFA is a moderately effective, reversible, and competitive inhibitor of furin-mediated cleavage of the pentapeptide pGlu-Arg-Thr-Lys-Arg-MCA fluorogenic substrate, with an inhibition constant Ki of approximately 1.98 ??M.
