C12-rrw-NH2

C12-rrw-NH2 (Lip7) is a synthetic antimicrobial peptide active against Gram-positive bacteria, including MRSA. It kills bacteria by depolarizing and disrupting the cell membrane, leading to leakage of cellular contents and ROS generation. This peptide is a valuable tool for research into stable peptide antibiotics, with applications in both in vitro and in vivo antimicrobial studies.
