Beschreibung

Melittin is a peptide that is cationic and polycationic. It has been shown to be effective against mutants, such as those resistant to the antibiotic ampicillin. Melittin also has been shown to have a role in the development of vaccines for Brucella and typhimurium. The peptide has been shown to be effective against type species of these bacteria, such as Salmonella typhimurium and Brucella abortus. The mechanism of action of melittin is not fully understood but it may work by binding to the cell membrane, which causes ion leakage and consequently disrupts cellular functions.
