Product Information

• Name: Cyclo(Ile-Val)
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Cyclo(Ile-Val) is a cyclic dipeptide, which is a type of small, cyclic peptide molecule. It is derived from non-ribosomal peptide synthesis, often produced by bacteria and fungi as a secondary metabolite with potential ecological functions. This compound's mode of action is primarily through perturbation of microbial cell membranes, resulting in compromised integrity and eventual cell death. Cyclo(Ile-Val) has been studied for its antimicrobial and antifungal properties, making it a molecule of interest in biotechnological and pharmaceutical research. Its ability to disrupt microbial growth suggests applications in developing novel antimicrobial agents or as a natural preservative in various industries. Further exploration into its exact mechanisms and spectrum of activity continues to elucidate its potential as a therapeutic agent.
