Description:
This peptide was isolated from the blood of an experimentally infected insect, the blow fly Calliphora vicina (Diptera). Insects can rapidly clear microbial infections by producing a variety of immune-induced molecules including antibacterial and/or antifungal peptides. Experiments in mice indicate that alloferon has antiviral and antitumoral capabilities. This peptide shows immunomodulatory properties and may have therapeutic capacities.
Storage:
Store the peptide at -20°C. Keep container tightly
