IDR-1

IDR-1 – Antimicrobial Peptides – AMP As an antimicrobial peptide (AMP), IDR-1 acts indirectly on pathogenic bacterial infections. IDR-1 is proposed to function by upregulating monocyte cytokines (interleukins) while also reducing a pro-inflammatory...

Acetyl-Adhesin

Acetyl-Adhesin – Antimicrobial Peptides – AMP Bacterial cell invasion begins by initially adhering to mucosa of the oro-intestinal, nasorespiratory, or genitourinary tract by specific adhesins. This leads to colonization of the region and ultimately...

Temporin A

Temporin A – Antimicrobial Peptides – AMP Temporin A is a short, linear, basic and highly hydrophobic anti-microbial peptide (AMP) isolated from the frog, Rana temporaria. Temporin A is particularly active against Gram-positive bacteria including those...

Indolicidin

Indolicidin – Antimicrobial Peptides – AMP Indolicidin is a natural cationic cathelicidin family anti-microbial peptide (AMP) with a very wide killing spectrum which includes: Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, fungi, protozoa and HIV.  It is also...
