Cyclic tetrapeptide fungal toxin selectively toxic to plants with susceptible host genotype.

Cyclic tetrapeptide fungal toxin selectively toxic to plants with susceptible host genotype.

Melittin is hydrophobic in nature except for a region with Lys-Arg-Lys-Arg sequence near C-terminal end. This structural characteristic makes melittin a highly surface-active and a powerful, direct haemolytic agent.† The encoded protein containins 26 amino acids. Monomeric form of melittin has a molecular weight of 2,840 Daltons and tetrameric form has molecular weight of approximately 12,500 Daltons.

Insulin regulates the cellular uptake, utilization, and storage of glucose, amino acids, and fatty acids.

A mixture of type I (containing α-hydroxy fatty acid) and type II (containing non-hydroxy fatty acid) cerebrosides.

Hemopressin is an endogenous hypotensive nonapeptide derived from hemoglobin. Hemopressin reduces appetite, acting as a cannabinoid CB1 inverse agonist.

BSA is a single polypeptide chain consisting of about 583 amino acid residues and no carbohydrates. At pH 5-7 it contains 17 intrachain disulfide bridges and 1 sulfhydryl group.
