Secondary Information

Protein Function Scrambled BMAP–27 has reduced antimicrobial action against S. aureus, S. uberis and E. coli compared with unmodified BMAP-27, confirming the specificity of this peptide; Scrambled BMAP-27 did not retain its original conformation, but had the same net charge (+10), indicating that structure is significant to maintaining its antimicrobial activity; has immunomodulatory roles desirable for treatment of infectious disorders; reduces cytotoxicity of mammalian cells and inhibit-LPS induced TNF-α secretion;
