Product Information
41.6% similar to Phylloseptin-H9 and NRC-10. The peptide was identified from Trichoplax adhaerens, the only described species in the phylum Placozoa, structurally simplest multicellular animal. Active against Gram+ S. aureus (MRSA), L. ivanovii (MIC 3 uM), E. faecalis (MIC 12.5 uM), Gram- bacteria E. coli ATCC 25922, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853, A. baumannii ATCC 19606, K. pneumoniae ATCC 13883 (MIC 3-6 uM), fungi C. albicans ATCC 90028 and C. parapsilosis ATCC 22019 (MIC 25-50 uM). This peptide showed a relatively good cell selectivity index (65-260). Trichoplaxin is random in water but helical in the presence of membrane-mimetic models such as SDS or TFE. Reg. 9/29/2014; 12/16/2014. Trichoplaxin (unclassified simpliest animals) was found in identified in the EST database, Trichoplax adhaerens.

| About TFA salt: | Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a strong acid, which is commonly used to cleave synthesized peptides from solid-phase resins and is also used to improve HPLC performance in the peptide purification step. By default, custom peptides are delivered as lyophilized TFA salts, and can contain as much as 10-45% TFA. TFA in custom peptides can cause inexplicable discrepancies in subsequent assay data. For instance, TFA in nM concentrations has been shown to interfere with cellular assays, inhibiting cellular proliferation in some instances, and increasing cell viability in others. It has also been found to be an unintended allosteric modulator of the glycine receptor, GlyR. TFA Removal Service is recommended for: > Peptides that will be used in cellular assays > Peptides that will be used as APIs or in manufactured products > For hydrophilic peptides containing numerous basic residues |
