Lactoferricin H, derived from human lactotransferrin, is a peptide that exhibits notable antimicrobial and immunomodulatory properties. It is a fragment of lactotransferrin, specifically encompassing amino acids 37 to 61 of the protein. This peptide is characterized by its ability to bind iron, which is crucial for its biological activity, as it can sequester iron from pathogens, thereby inhibiting their growth. Lactoferricin H also demonstrates a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity against bacteria, fungi, and viruses, making it a subject of interest in pharmaceutical and nutritional applications. Additionally, it has been shown to possess anti-inflammatory properties and may play a role in modulating the immune response. The peptide's structure includes a high proportion of positively charged amino acids, contributing to its interaction with microbial membranes. Overall, Lactoferricin H is recognized for its potential health benefits, particularly in enhancing host defense mechanisms and promoting gut health.
