Uses
Pardaxin P 4 is an antimicrobial peptide found in the secretions of Red Sea Moses sole. Pardaxin P 4 acts as a biomembrane perforator that can interact with phospholipid bilayers of different compositions and induce cytotoxicity and pore formation. Pardaxin P 4 can be used in the research of antimicrobial drugs[1].
