Melittin [Cy5]

Melittin [Cy5] – Fluorescent Peptides Melittin is a 26-residue cationic, haemolytic peptide isolated from honeybee venom. Melittin lowers the surface tension at the plasma membrane and causes cell lysis. It also exhibits potent anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity. Melittin has been extensively used as a model peptide for observing membrane lipid-protein interaction. In Melittin [Cy5] the […]

Product Description & Background

Melittin [Cy5] – Fluorescent Peptides

Melittin is a 26-residue cationic, haemolytic peptide isolated from honeybee venom. Melittin lowers the surface tension at the plasma membrane and causes cell lysis. It also exhibits potent anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity. Melittin has been extensively used as a model peptide for observing membrane lipid-protein interaction. In Melittin [Cy5] the fluorophore Cy5, a member of the Cy-Dye fluorescent molecule group which are most commonly used in DNA-related applications is added to the melittin peptide.
