Derived from the C-terminal region (residues 32-51, where 7 out 8 basic residues are located) of MUC7 domain 1. Activity was initially reported in a previous study (Smith CJ and Bobek LA 2001 J Dent Res 80:601). Active against bacteria A. actinomycetemcomitans, E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. mutans (cariogenic bacteria), P. gingivalis, and S. gordonii (MIC 1-4.4 uM), fungi C. albicans, C. glabrata, C. krusei, and C. neoformans CN2, and S. cerevisiae (MIC 2.4-5.8 uM) (including resistant forms of C. albicans, C. glabrata, and C, neoformans) (MIC 2.4-12.3 uM). The secondary structure prediction showed that MUC7 20-mer adopts an amphiphilic helix. The peptide is still active after removing the first eight residues (MUC7 12-mer). In saliva (proteases and ionic strength), the D-form of MUC7-12mer is more active than the L-form, although they showed similar activity in phosphate buffer (PBS) (D=L). Updated 12/2014. human MUC7 20-Mer has Antibacterial, Antifungal activity. human MUC7 20-Mer was found in Homo sapiens.

| 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 |
