melittin acetate

Melittin Acetate (Forapin Acetate) is a PLA2 activator. Melittin Acetate stimulates the activity of the low molecular weight PLA2, while it does not increase the activity of the high molecular weight PLA2.

MDP1 acetate, a derivative of Melittin, compromises membrane integrity of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria leading to bacterial death through membrane damage. MDP1 acetate exhibits antibacterial activity against multidrug-resistant and reference strains of S. aureus, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa. MDP1 acetate is used in antimicrobial membrane biology research systems to investigate peptide-induced membrane disruption, bacterial permeability changes, and antimicrobial peptide mechanism profiling.

Peceleganan acetate (PL-5), a synthetic hybrid analogue combining segments of cecropin A (1-10) and melittin B (3-18) to form a (10+16)-peptide, demonstrates antimicrobial properties. It is specifically effective in inhibiting wound infections [1].
