      • Overview
        • Cecropin B is an antimicrobial peptide originally isolated from insects, but now believed to be naturally produced and found in a large variety of organisms including mammals. It has garnered a lot of interest for its broad-spectrum antiparasitic and antibacterial activities. It is also active against fungi, and has cytotoxic effects on cancer cell lines.

          Background

          The antibacterial mode of action for Cecropins is pore-formation based, in which an antimicrobial peptide inserts itself into the bacterial membrane and allows ions to flow freely through, resulting in cell depolarization and death.
