Thanatin TFA
Description
Thanatin TFA is an inducible cationic antimicrobial peptide. Thanatin TFA is a pathogen-induced ??-hairpin AMP containing a single disulfide bond. Thanatin TFA exhibits broad-spectrum activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria as well as various fungi, with MIC values of 0.3-40 ??M, 0.6-40 ??M, and 0.6-20 ??M, respectively. Thanatin TFA has the property of competitively displacing divalent cations on the bacterial outer membrane (OM), leading to OM disruption.
