UniProtKB - A0A0A1I6N9 (NDB4T_ANDCR)
Protein
Antimicrobial peptide AcrAP2
Gene
N/A
Organism
Androctonus crassicauda (Arabian fat-tailed scorpion)
Status
Functioni
Has antimicrobial activity against the Gram-positive bacteria S.aureus (MIC=8 µM) and the yeast C.albicans (MIC=16 µM). Causes hemolysis on horse erythrocytes (64 µM for 100% hemolysis). Minimum bactericidal concentrations have also been tested against S.aureus and is four-fold higher (MBC=32 µM).
1 PublicationMiscellaneous
Does not show antimicrobial activity against the Gram-negative bacteria E.coli (MIC>250 µM). Does not show effect on four different human cancer cell lines.1 Publication
