Magainin II（Cat No.:M004183）is a naturally occurring antimicrobial peptide isolated from the skin of the African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis. Known for its broad-spectrum activity, it targets bacterial, fungal, and some viral pathogens by disrupting cell membranes, leading to cell lysis. Magainin II has garnered attention for its potential as a therapeutic agent due to its unique mechanism that circumvents traditional antibiotic resistance. Additionally, it exhibits anti-cancer properties and immunomodulatory effects, making it a candidate for drug development in treating infections and exploring novel antimicrobial therapies.
